Following their disappointing loss the previous night, when Green Bay homered twice in the bottom of the ninth inning off closer Sean Doolittle, the River Walkers responded with a tense 2-0 win over the Green Bay Long Haulers to secure a 2-1 series win.
Coming up from the minor to make a spot start, right-hander Shane Carle shined with 7.1 shutout innings against the Haulers. He scattered four hits while striking out six and walking one.
Jake Diekman pitched around a one-out single in the eighth inning. Keone Kela handled a scoreless ninth for his seventh save.
The Walkers managed just two hits, but both cleared the fence as early season MVP candidate smacked solo homers off Brady Rogers in the fourth inning and Wil Harris in the seventh.
For the season, Benintendi is batting .349 with 13 homers and 42 RBIs.
