The Hawks are red hot after wrapping up a 5-1 home stand with a three-game sweep of Wisconsin. The Tom Belza-Chris Ellison one-two punch at the top of the order has really triggered things. It bumped Ender Inciarte down to the bottom of the order and with him heating up as well, you have a really balanced lineup right now. Mixing in a few Marc Bourgeois long balls certainly help as well.

Oh by the way, Silver Hawks starting pitchers allowed one earned run during the three game set against Wisconsin.

It’s off to Iowa!
