FARGO, N.D. — The Fargo-Moorhead RedHawks were shut out for the first time this season by the Milwaukee Milkmen in front of 1,717 fans at Newman Outdoor Field on Wednesday night. The 5-0 loss was their fourth straight, three of which have come to the Milkmen. Milwaukee scored two runs in the fourth and three runs in the fifth on the way to their sixth straight win.
Despite traffic on the bases, RedHawks right-handed pitcher Brent Jones was able to escape the first three innings without a run allowed. However, in the fourth and fifth innings, he gave up five runs on seven hits. Jones ended the day after five innings of work with five runs on 11 hits and three walks. He is now 0-2 with a 5.29 ERA on the season. The only error in the game came in the top of the 5th inning, when RedHawks left fielder Will Zimmerman tried to throw out Milwaukee’s DH Christian Correa at third base as the ball sailed over and ended up in the RedHawks dugout. Alex DuBord came in the 6th and didn’t allow a run in four innings despite giving up two hits and four walks.
