Joey Mancini dispatched each of the first five Missions he faced before sidestepping a two-out infield hit in the seventh. After leaving two walks in the eighth, Mancini stranded a free pass in the ninth to pick up his second Double-A save.
Mancini has not allowed a marker in his last two appearances, spanning eight frames.
In the second, the Hooks established a lead they would not relinquish as Orlando Martinez scorched a two-run triple off the fence in right. Martinez later cruised home via a wild pitch.
Back-to-back doubles by Wes Clarke and Luis Baez opened the fifth, making it a 4-0 contest.
