Omar Hurtado's second inning home run got the Dayton Dragons rolling to a 5-1 win over the West Michigan WhiteCaps at Old Kent Park on Tuesday night.

The Dragons, who have won three straight games, opened the scoring on Hurtado's home run, his second in as many games and third of the season.

The WhiteCaps loaded the bases with none out against Dragons starter Steve Kelly (2-0) but scored just once to tie the game on an RBI groundout by Mike Rabelo. Dayton took the lead for good with a run in the third as Gary Patchett singled and scored on Jesse Gutierrez's double off Jeremy Lewis (1-2).

Patchett drove in another run with a sacrifice fly in the fourth to give Dayton a 3-1 lead. The Dragons scored two more runs in the sixth as Justin Davis doubled and scored on Bryan Prince's two bagger. Prince advanced to third and scored on back to back wild pitches by WhiteCaps reliever Dan Smith.
