Swept.




Colorado Springs 3, Oklahoma City 2 in 11 innings

W- Manny Corpas (1-1)
L- Darin Downs (0-1)

OKC home runs: None.

The RedHawks took the lead in extras, only to eventually walk off with a loss in the 3rd game of this series.

Kiké Hernandez, in his AAA debut, got the start in RF and went 2-3 with a run scored, 2 walks, and a steal (1). He scored on a Jonathan Meyer single in the 7th, which tied the game at 1. Ronald Torreyes came on to pinch-hit for Andy Simunic to begin the 10th inning and promptly ripped a triple. Gregorio Petit brought him home with a sac fly to give the RedHawks a 2-1 lead. Austin Wates was 1-3 with 2 walks and 3 stolen bases (8). Max Stassi saw his 12-game hitting streak come to an end as he was 0-5 with 2 strikeouts.

Collin McHugh had a nice start; he went 5 innings and allowed a run on 3 hits and struck out 3. Nick Tropeano tagged in and allowed a hit and struck out 2 over 3.2 scoreless. Darin Downs pitched 2 innings and allowed 2 runs on 3 hits and struck out 1. The game-winning run off of Downs came on a sac fly.

Bobby Doran and David Martinez will start the series finale; they'll be taking on Pedro Hernandez. First pitch is at 7:35.

Frisco 3, Corpus Christi 2

W- Wilmer Font (1-0)
L- Brady Rodgers (0-1)

CC home runs: Preston Tucker (3, solo in 6th)

The Roughriders got 2 late runs and walked off with the victory in the opener.

Again, the Hooks offense was contained as the Frisco hurlers limited them to 5 hits. They did have a couple of chances, but nothing came of those. Rene Garcia scored on a Matt Duffy fielder's choice in the 5th to tie the game at 1, and Tucker, who went 2-4, gave the Hooks the lead with his blast (3) to begin the 6th. Telvin Nash, in his season debut, went 1-4 with 3 strikeouts. Leo Heras was 0-1 with a hat trick of walks, and Nolan Fontana logged his first multi-walk game of the season.

Colton Cain went 4 innings and allowed 2 hits, one of which was a solo home run from Ryan Rua in the 2nd, walked 3, and struck out 3. Pat Urckfitz threw a 1-2-3 5th, and Brady Rodgers went 3.1 and allowed 2 runs (1 earned) on 6 hits (all singles), walked 1, and struck out 2.

Aaron West and David Rollins will be on the mound for game 2, and their opponent will be Alec Asher. First pitch is at 7:05.

High Desert 8, Lancaster 4

W- Tyler Olson (1-1)
L- Chris Devenski (1-2)
S- Will Mathis (2)

Lancaster home runs: None.

The JetHawks clawed back with 3 in the bottom of the 7th to cut their deficit to 1, but the Mavericks got those 3 runs back in the 8th to take the opening game of the series.

Rio Ruiz, Brandon Meredith, and Jake Rodriguez had 2 hits apiece; Meredith walked twice, while Ruiz's sac fly in the 7th accounted for Lancaster's only RBI. 3 of the 4 JetHawks runs came on wild pitches; Ruiz scored their first run on one in the 6th. Tony Kemp drew a 1-out walk in the 7th, advanced to 2nd on a Teoscar Hernandez single, and scored on 2 consecutive wild pitches. After Carlos Correa walked, Hernandez would score on the 3rd wild pitch of the inning. Teoscar went 1-4 with a steal (7) and extended his hitting streak to 5 games.

Chris Devenski pitched 4.1 innings and allowed 3 runs on 5 hits (solo homer), walked 1, and struck out 5. Mitch Lambson got the final 2 outs of the 5th via strikeout. Josh Hader had his first rough outing of the year, as he gave up 5 runs (2 inherited runners scored) on 6 hits (solo homer), walked 3, and struck out 2. Juan Minaya pitched the final 1.1 innings and allowed 2 of the 3 runners he inherited from Hader in the 8th to score on a 2-run single and fanned 2.

In the middle game of this series, Mike Hauschild will take on Jochi Ogando. First pitch is at 6:30 Pacific. Mark Appel will not appear due to a "developmental decision," as Jason Schwartz put it. There probably isn't anything going on; it's just an extended period of rest for Appel.

South Bend 5, Quad Cities 0

W- Braden Shipley (1-0)
L- Albert Minnis (0-1)

QC home runs: None, obviously.

The River Bandits only had 5 hits as they got blanked in the series opener. Jack Mayfield, Tanner Mathis, and Chan-Jong Moon hit doubles.

Gonzalo Sañudo started off with 4 scoreless and allowed 3 hits while striking out 2. Albert Minnis gave up 2 runs (1 earned) on 3 hits in the 5th. Adrian Houser went 3 innings and allowed 3 runs (all in the 9th; 2 inherited runners scored) on 5 hits and struck out 3. Pat Christensen didn't allow any runs of his own in the 9th, but he did allow both of the runners he inherited from Houser to score. Christensen allowed a hit and struck out 1.

In the middle game of this series, Andrew Thurman and Chris Lee will face Blake Perry at 7:00.
