Rain and Thunder too much for Ducks in 1-0 loss

Thunder 1 RubberDucks 0
WP: Jose Mesa, Jr. (1-0) LP: Sean Brady (0-2) Save: Jordan Foley (1) 
 
Summary
Trenton's Jhalen Jackson belted a solo homer in the second inning, and four Trenton pitchers combined on a two-hitter, as the Thunder blanked the Akron RubberDucks, 1-0, Saturday afternoon at Canal Park in Akron, Ohio.

Turning Point
Jackson led off the Trenton second inning with a homer to left-center field off Ducks starter Sean Brady (0-2). It was Jackson's league-leading fifth of the season.
Mound Presence
Brady lasted four innings and allowed only two hits. His outing was cut short when rain forced a delay at the end of the fourth inning. Once play resumed, Jordan Milbrath (2 IP), Argenis Angulo (1.2 IP) and Luke Eubank (1.1 IP) all chipped in scoreless relief. Eubank struck out Trey Amburgey with the bases loaded in the eighth inning to keep the deficit, 1-0.
Duck Tales 
Newcomer Connor Marabell had the only Akron hit-a single in the third inning-until Daniel Salters singled with one out in the ninth. Sam Haggerty and Ka'ai Tom drew back-to-back walks to load the bases, but Trenton closer Jordan Foley struck out Mark Mathias and induced a groundout from Bobby Bradley to end the game.
