After lashing out 18 runs over two victories at Columbus, St. Paul managed just one tally Friday in a 5-1 loss to the Clippers.<\/p>\n
The Saints mustered up just five hits, with its lone run coming on a seventh-inning home run by Tristan Gray \u2014 his third of the season \u2014 after the hosts had already posted more than enough scoring to secure the victory.<\/p>\n
Gray was the lone St. Paul batter to record more than one hit, going 2 for 4 and driving in himself with the team\u2019s lone RBI.<\/p>\n
Saints starter Kendry Rojas was forced from the game after suffering an apparent injury on a pitch to his first batter of the second inning. Aaron Rozek (3-3, 3.94 ERA) took over on the mound and was charged with the loss after allowing four earned runs on four hits and three walks while striking out four batters.<\/p>\n
St. Paul and Columbus are scheduled to meet in the fifth game of their six-game series at 6:05 p.m. Saturday. The Saints are slated to send Germ\u00e1n M\u00e1rquez (1-1, 3.32) to the mound against Clippers starter Rorik Maltrud (5-1, 3.83).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"After lashing out 18 runs over two victories at Columbus, St. Paul managed just one tally Friday in…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":785077,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2388],"tags":[5,822,60,3190,4,185,5855,148],"class_list":["post-785076","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-minnesota-twins","tag-baseball","tag-minnesota","tag-minnesota-twins","tag-minnesotatwins","tag-mlb","tag-sports","tag-st-paul-saints","tag-twins"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@mlb\/117136836729722267","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/785076","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=785076"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/785076\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/785077"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=785076"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=785076"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=785076"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
