COLUMBUS, OH - The Clippers honored active and veteran military and first responders on Wednesday, while shutting out the visiting Gwinnett Stripers, 6-0.
Left-handed starter Will Dion was masterful over 4.2 scoreless innings, allowing just three hits while striking out seven. He was followed by Andrew Misiaszek(1-1), Matt Krook, Trevor Stephan, and Zak Kent, who combined to keep the Stripers off the scoreboard the rest of the way.
Columbus got the scoring going in the bottom the 3rd inning courtesy of a RBI single off the bat of Johnathan Rodriguez. Then the Clippers really got cooking in the 4th, starting when Dom Nuñez singled in a run to make it 2-0. The next batter, Milan Tolentino, did the same. That was followed by a towering two-run blast down the right field line by Petey Halpin, his eleventh home run of the season.
