Fennell, came on in relief and pitched one and one-third innings. He inherited one runner and stranded him. Fennell allowed one hit and one walk while striking out one.

Albuquerque snapped a 5-game losing streak with a 9-5 victory.

Right fielder Sam Hilliard hit a grand slam in the sixth inning of the triumph.

The Isotopes are in the Colorado minor league system. Fennell was drafted in the 24th round by the Rockies in 2018 after a standout career at Barton.

Fennell returned to the Boise Hawks of the Class A Northwest League on Tuesday as left-handed pitcher Pat Dean was activated from the 7-day injured list for Albuquerque.
