FORT MYERS MIGHTY MUSSELS 1, BRADENTON MARAUDERS 0 IN FORT MYERS

Twins' affiliates played one game, and they scored one run, and it was enough.  Fort Myers loaded the bases with two out in the first on three walks, but did not score.  Bradenton got men to second and third in the fifth on a hit batsman, a walk, and a ground out, but did not score.  Those were the only men to reach third base until the seventh, when Peyton Carr led off with a walk, went to second on a pickoff error, and scored on a pair of ground outs.  Twins baseball!

Fort Myers had five hits and drew seven walks, but managed to score only one unearned run.  But again, it was enough, as four Fort Myers pitchers shut out Bradenton on four hits and two walks.

Batters:  Jose Rodriguez was 2-for-3 with a double and a walk.

Pitchers:  Jakob Hall pitched three shutout innings, giving up a hit and a walk and striking out two.  Jacob Kisting pitched three shutout innings and only allowed a walk.  Devin Kirby pitched two shutout innings, giving up two hits and striking out one.  Kade Bragg struck out three in a scoreless inning, giving up one hit.

Opponents:  Jonawel Valdez struck out three and walked three in three shutout innings, giving up one hit.  Greiber Mendez struck out four in three shutout innings, giving up three hits and a walk.
