AAA Columbus Clippers

Mud Hens 2, Clippers 1 Host Toledo scored two runs in the first inning off Columbus starter Corey Kluber (3-2, 2.78) in International League play, and that was all it needed.

Kluber settled down afterward and went 51/3 innings, giving up two runs on four hits and striking out 10, but the damage was already done and he was charged with the loss.

After a walk in the top of the seventh inning, Matt LaPorta (.359) scored a run for the Clippers on a one-out double by Beau Mills (.277).

AA Akron Aeros

Aeros 8, Baysox 3 Akron pounded host Bowie (Md.) for 13 hits.

Half its runs came in the top of the second, thanks to an RBI single by Thomas Neal (.275), a double that scored two by Michel Hernandez (.364) and an RBI double by Kyle Bellows (.222).

Pitcher T.J. McFarland (5-1, 2.62) picked up the win, giving up three runs on nine hits and striking out four in six innings of work.

Advanced A Carolina Mudcats

Mudcats vs. Keys, ppd. At Five County Stadium in Zebulon, N.C., the rain fell and the baseballs didn't. The game against Frederick (Md.) will be made up as part of a doubleheader today beginning at 1 p.m.

A Lake County Captains

Hot Rods 2, Captains 0 The Captains could generate little offense against Bowling Green starter Ryan Carpenter (4-1, 2.57) and reliever Jason McEachern (0.96), getting just four hits in a road loss.

Lake County starter Cody Anderson (2-1, 2.42) and Rob Nixon (3.38) also combined to hold the Hot Rods to four hits, but they received no run support.
