Round Rock
J.R. House hit a solo homer. Chad Reineke gave up two three run homers. You do the math. That leads to a loss. The final had the Express on the short end of a 10-1 score.
Roster note: Stephen Randolph was traded to Philly for a player to be named later. Kyle Middleton was called up to RR to take his place. Middleton has been on the DL since early April. He appeared in only one game for the Hooks prior to going ton the DL. In that outing, he gave up 3 runs in 1 inning.Read More
