GAME 2: Toledo 4, Omaha 1
Toledo once again was first onto the scoreboard in the nightcap, with a solo homer opening the bottom of the second as the Mud Hens led the rest of the night.
After Anthony Simonelli allowed the one run over the first two innings of the game, righty Jacob Wallace retired his first four batters before four straight reached base off him in the fourth inning to plate three runs.
Taylor Clarke stranded an inherited runner from Wallce to get the final two outs of the fourth, then pitched a scoreless fifth, before Eric Cerantola offered a scoreless sixth inning.
Omaha’s lone run of the second game once again came in the sixth inning, as Gentry opened the frame with a double, then scored on a single from Nick Pratto.
