It was a food fight at Werner Park on Saturday as both the Storm Chasers and Isotopes adopted their food identities, becoming the Omaha Runzas and the Albuquerque Green Chile Cheeseburgers, respectively. The Runzas were victorious, shutting out the Green Chile Cheeseburgers, 2-0. Albuquerque has now been shut out four times in 2018.

Albuquerque's offense recorded five hits on the night, none going for extra-bases as the Isotopes are now 0-2 when playing as the Green Chile Cheeseburgers.
Green Chile Cheeseburgers starter Yency Almonte took the loss despite recording the club's 10th quality start of the season. The right-hander allowed two runs over 6.0 innings on the hill, walking two and striking out two.
Shane Broyles tossed 2.0 perfect innings out of the bullpen in relief of Almonte.
The Isotopes and Storm Chasers continue their four-game series on Sunday afternoon in Papillion. Albuquerque will hand the ball to Brett Oberholtzer. First pitch from Werner Park is set for 1:05 p.m.
