Toledo’s Mud Hens Extend Win Streak to an Unprecedented 10 GamesToledo’s Mud Hens Extend Win Streak to an Unprecedented 10 Games The Toledo Mud Hens, the Detroit Tigers’ Triple-A affiliate, have electrified the Minor League Baseball landscape with an extraordinary 10-game winning streak. Their remarkable run has catapulted them to the top of the International League West Division standings. On Friday night, the Mud Hens clinched their 10th consecutive victory with a hard-fought 6-5 triumph over the Columbus Clippers. The team’s stellar pitching, timely hitting, and airtight defense have been the driving forces behind their unprecedented success. Starting pitcher Beau Burrows was in dominant form, allowing only one run over five innings. The bullpen came through with four shutout innings, with reliever Miguel Del Pozo securing the save in the ninth. Offensively, the Mud Hens were led by third baseman Isaac Paredes, who went 3-for-4 with two doubles and two RBIs. Shortstop Zack Short also contributed a solo home run, while designated hitter Kody Clemens added an RBI single. “We’re just playing together as a team and having fun,” said Paredes. “We’re not worried about who’s on the mound or at the plate. We’re just going out there and playing hard.” Manager Lloyd McClendon has been thrilled with his team’s recent performance, crediting their mental toughness and unwavering belief in their abilities. “They’re just a bunch of winners,” McClendon said. “They’re not going to be denied. They’re finding ways to win, and that’s the mark of a great team.” The Mud Hens’ win streak is the longest in the International League this season and their longest since 2015. They will look to continue their momentum when they face the Indianapolis Indians in a four-game series starting on Saturday night.
