AKRON, Ohio – Lonnie White Jr. hit two of Altoona’s four home runs in an 8-7 win over the Akron RubberDucks Tuesday afternoon at 7 17 Credit Union Park.
Facing rehabbing Guardians lefty Tim Herrin, Altoona loaded the bases with one out before he hit his hard pitch limit. Murf Gray connected a grand slam, his second homer in four games with the Curve and his 25th of the season. White followed him two pitches later with a solo home run to right-center, marking the fourth time this season that Altoona hit back-to-back home runs.
