Designated hitter Nolan Schubart did well when he was up to bat as well, going two for three with a homer and a walk to his credit.
The pitching was great on Tuesday night as well, with the pitching staff recording 13 strikeouts. The Pokes only allowed two earned runs all night, with the other two coming off of errors.
