Astros Winter League Recaps

Results for Friday, January 9, 2015 (and one from today)

AUSTRALIAN BASEBALL LEAGUE

Adelaide 8, Perth 7

This turned out to be the only game on the ABL slate; the other 2 games, which were taking place on Australia's East Coast, were both postponed. The Bite withstood a late charge from the Heat and held on for the win.

Chan-Jong Moon led off the top of the 9th with a double, and he eventually scored a critical insurance run on a sac fly. In the 6th, he grounded into a force out that brought in a run, and in the 1st, he scored on another sac fly. Tyler Brunnemann recorded his 7th save of the campaign, getting the final 4 outs of the game. He allowed an unearned run on a groundout (runner reached on an error) and a single in the 9th, and struck out 1.

The series finale will take place at 11:05 A.M. Australian Western time. That's 9:05 P.M. tonight, Central time.
