COLUMBUS, OH – Over 10,000 fans packed Huntington Park for Tansky Tuesday Dime-A-Dog Night, and while most got plenty to eat, unfortunately they were not treated to a Clippers victory as Indianapolis won the series opener, 7-2.
Indy struck first with a pair of runs in the 1st. A possible 3rd inning rally by the visitors was cut short thanks to an unbelievably perfect throw to home plate by left fielder Chase DeLauter.

Columbus evened the game in the bottom of the 3rd. Milan Tolentino scored via an error on a play that began with a single by Brayan Rocchio, and then DeLauter singled in another to make it 2-2. Indianapolis quickly regained the advantage in the top of the 4th inning and didn't look back.
Left-hander Doug Nikhazy (3-4) turned in a solid start for the Clippers in a losing effort, going 5.0 innings while allowing four runs on six hits with four strikeouts.
