A plethora of offensive production guides Chicago to a series victory over Winnipeg

Following a 12-run performance in the series opener, momentum carried over into Game 2 as the Dogs scored eight runs on 16 hits.

The Dogs defeated Winnipeg 8-6 on Wednesday night in Rosemont.

The Dogs scored four runs in the second inning highlighted by a rally of hits from Jacob Teter, Zion Pettigrew, Jesus Lujano, Antonio Barranca, Nick Dalesandro and Brantley Bell.

The offense continued to strike in the third inning led by a Zion Pettigrew solo home run.

Pettigrew’s second home run of the season was one of his two hits in Wednesday’s victory. Pettigrew’s batting average keeps on rising, sitting at .380 following his performance.

Matt Walker, the starting pitcher for the Dogs, was throwing what could have been his best outing of the season. Heading into the fifth inning of work, Walker was holding a shutout, allowing just three hits, while striking out four. Walker ended up getting hit in the leg on a hard hit up the middle, ending his outing earlier than anticipated.
