Starter Corey Avant delivered his longest outing of the season to help the RockHounds record their second straight win over the Hooks on Friday. The 24-year-old righty allowed 2 runs and struck out 7 through 5 2/3 frames to register his first win of the season for the RockHounds. Avant’s 54 strikeouts (in 38 2/3 innings) are the second-most in the A’s system this season. RHP Micah Dallas, LHP Domingo Robles and RHP Shohei Tomioka each tossed a scoreless inning in relief, with Tomioka securing his 5th save for Midland. Designated hitter Luke Mann drilled a three-run homer and drew a walk, while catcher Cole Conn singled, walked twice and swiped a pair of bases, and first baseman Brennan Milone singled, drew a walk and drove in a run for the RockHounds.
