BOISE -- The Boise Hawks struggles continued on Thursday night as they dropped their seventh straight game and their second in a row to the Vancouver Canadians, 3-1.
The Hawks got their one and only run in the first inning when Richard Jones' RBI single brought in Jesus Morelli.
Vancouver came right back in the top of the second as A.J. Kirby-Jones evened the score with a solo home run. The C's added two more in the sixth inning and that was all the offense they would need.
Boise wasted an outstanding performance by starter Dustin Fitzgerald who went five innings and allowed just one run and two hits.
Eric Jokisch takes the loss in three innings of work. He allowed three hits and two runs in the sixth inning.
The Hawks managed just six hits in the game and are now 0-2 to open the second half of the season.
Vancouver and the Hawks return to the field at Memorial Stadium on Friday night at 7:15.
