Baker allowed no runs for the second straight start, allowing just two hits and two walks while striking out three.\n<\/p>\n \n\tRochester starter Isaac Friesen yielded two unearned runs over seven innings in a no-decision. The right-hander gave up just five hits and three walks, striking out none.\n<\/p>\n \n\tDerek Hendrixson tossed a season-high three innings in relief. Hendrixson yielded two runs (one earned) on five hits, striking out four and issuing an intentional walk.\n<\/p>\n \n\tBrody Weiss went 2-for-4 with a double in his season debut for the Bucks while Robert Neustrom extended his hitting streak to six games with a double to leadoff the bottom of the second.\n<\/p>\n \n\tThe Bucks conclude their two-game series against the Honkers on Wednesday, June 15 in Rochester.
