TUESDAY’S GAME

Dayton at Lake County, 7 p.m. WONE-AM (980) with a moonshot of his own on May 31.

The Dragons continued to pile on, scoring five in the second with Stuart Fairchild capping off the frame with a home run to right, his sixth. Dayton added three runs more in bottom of the fifth.

“It’s great when you have a big lead like that,” Greene said. “You feel loose ... you’re breathing, you’re executing, you’re not trying to do overdo anything. You’re just going out there and pitching.”

The Lugnuts did their most damage against Dauri Moreta in the bottom of the seventh, scoring four runs.

Dragons’ tales: Blink and you’ll miss a Greene fastball. And that’s if you’re in the stands. Imagine being in the batter’s box as the 18-year-old phenom whizzes a 101-mileper hour fastball into the glove of his catcher, Hendrick Clementina. Watch enough games and you’ll see more and more pitchers throwing in the midto-upper 90s, but Greene is playing at another level.

“(He throws) more than hard,” said Lake County Captains second baseman Tyler Friis, who was in town to face Hunter Greene May 24.

Friis is one of five players to homer off Greene, with the latest being Lansing’s Samad Taylor, who hit a 385-foot shot to left field Sunday, Greene’s only mistake.

Friis, a switch hitter, said he noticed a difference in the way Greene approaches left- and right-handed hitters.

Greene said tat it may have looked like that during that particular outing, but it’s not a regular tendency.
