Barons Beat The Wahoos

April 29, 2016

The Birmingham Barons won the opening game of its five-game series, 4-0, with Pensacola by limiting the Blue Wahoos lineup to three hits in the game at Regions Field.

Barons pitcher Tyler Danish, who’s in his second year in Double-A with the White Sox organization, gave up a hit in the second inning to Blue Wahoos left fielder Tony Renda and in the third inning to second baseman Alex Blandino, who ended up stranded at third base.

In the ninth inning, Renda hit a two-out triple off of Danish and was 2-4 on the night improving his batting average to .275.

Danish, the No. 11 prospect, pitched a complete game, giving up just three hits, walking two and striking out six. He improved to 2-2 on the season with a 3.56 earned-run average.

Pensacola pitcher Sal Romano gave up all four Baron runs in six innings, walked two and struck out seven.

Romano fell to 0-1 and his ERA increased to 4.09. He gave up a two-out home run to Birmingham’s Richmond in the second inning and a homer to first baseman Nicky Delmonico in the fourth inning.

After hitting .289 against the Jackson Generals in its home stand, Pensacola went 3-29 against the Baron’s Danish. The Blue Wahoos left 11 runners on base for the game.

The Barons added two more runs in the seventh inning to go up, 4-0. Delmonico scored on a single by DH Josh Richmond. Next, Birmingham third baseman Trey Michalczewski crossed the plate on a catcher Josh Dowdy single to right field.
