W- Frank Duncan (1-0)
L- Reymin Guduan (0-1)
S- Enrique Burgos (1)

Fresno home runs: Teoscar Hernandez (2, solo in 1st), Tyler White (1, solo in 7th)

The wheels fell off late for the Grizzlies bullpen.

Francis Martes had a nice AAA debut as he allowed 3 hits, walked 3, and struck out 3 over 5 shutout innings. He had to work his way out of trouble a few times but managed to emerge unscathed. Dayan Diaz threw a 1-2-3 6th inning. Reymin Guduan got two outs in the 7th, both via strikeout, but the Aces knocked him around to the tune of 5 runs (2 inherited runners charged to him) on 5 hits. Jordan Jankowski got the final out of the 7th, but not before allowing a 2-run double that allowed the runners he inherited from Guduan to score. Jared Mortensen allowed a hit, walked 1, and struck out 1 over the final 2 innings.

The Grizzlies' two runs came on the two solo shots you see above. Teoscar Hernandez went 2-3 and also stole his first base of the season.

Fresno will hit the road for the first time this season. Their first stop is Las Vegas for four games. Keegan Yuhl will face Adam Wilk in game 1. First pitch is at 7:05 Pacific.

W- Josh James (1-0)
L- Corey Ray (0-1)
S- Kevin Comer (1)

CC home runs: Jack Mayfield (1, solo in 1st)

A 5th-inning run broke a 2-2 tie in the Hooks' favor, and Josh James had a nice outing out of the bullpen.

Brock Dykxhoorn pitched 4 innings and allowed 2 runs on 4 hits, walked 1, and struck out 4. Josh James allowed 2 hits, walked 1, and struck out 2 in his 4 innings of work, and Kevin Comer worked around a hit in the 9th to close it out, striking out 1.

Jack Mayfield opened the scoring with a solo homer in the 1st. Alejandro Garcia added an RBI single later in the inning. Ramon Laureano drove in what turned out to be the winning run with a groundout in the 5th.
