It was a slow day for the Clippers offensively, as they recorded just four hits. Kahlil Watson went 1-3 with an RBI single hit 107.4 off the bat. Nolan Jones and Dayan Frias both went 1-3 with a walk.
Ryan Webb allowed two runs in four innings while striking out three batters and walking two. Daniel Espino and Franco Aleman continue to look good. Espino had a scoreless inning of relief despite two walks. Aleman went two full innings tonight and struck out two without allowing a single hit. He has yet to give up a single run this season, he is more than ready to be called up, and we know this bullpen needs all the help they can get.
