Loading... Edwin Jackson vs. Shaun Marcum
When the home team has to win Game 6 to force Game 7, that can provide a lot of drama. Of course, I really don't need to mention that to Twins fans. A Game 7 would feature Carpenter vs. Gallardo, so I think I'll be rooting for the Brewers in this one.
The Tigres closed a 5-0 gap to 5-4, but La Guaira scored three in the eighth to put away an 8-5 win in La Guaira.
The Tiburones were led by Miguel Rojas (Cincinnati), who had two singles, a double, and a triple. Hector Sanchez (San Francisco) singled and hit a three-run homer. Jeff Baisley (Oakland) had two doubles, Cesar Suarez singled and doubled, and Terry Tiffee had two hits. The winning pitcher was Jeff Bennett, who gave up just one run on four hits and a walk in five innings.
For Aragua, Guillermo Rodriguez singled and homered and Edgardo Alfonzo had two hits. Joe Benson was 1-for-3 with a walk and scored once. Starter Jesus Delgado took the loss, surrendering five runs on five hits and two walks in just 2.2 innings.
The Tigres travel to Magallanes this evening.
Mesa broke open a close game with a five-run sixth on their way to a 14-3 victory over Surprise.
Junior Lake (Cubs) singled, doubled, and homered, scoring three times and driving in four to lead the Solar Sox. Joe Mahoney (Baltimore) had three hits including a double and also drove in four. Brian Dozier was 3-for-5 with a double, driving in two and scoring four times. D. J. LeMahieu (Cubs) had three hits. Robbie Grossman (Pittsburgh) singled and homered. Aaron Hicks was 0-for-3, but drew two walks, drove in a run, and scored twice.
Cole DeVries started and got the win, giving up just one hit in four shutout innings while striking out five. Bruce Pugh worked a scoreless inning, giving up a hit and a walk. Chris Carpenter (Cubs) struck out five in 1.2 innings, allowing just one hit.
The Saguaros had only five hits in the game. Starter Shane Dyer (Tampa Bay) took the loss, allowing two runs on six hits and a walk in four innings.
Mesa has Sunday off, then hosts Salt River on Monday afternoon.
The New WGOM is six months old today! Sour Cream is four years old today, but unfortunately, she's also just getting over being sick. Y'all aren't sick on our special day, are you?
To commemorate the occasion, Beau wrote a Sporcle quiz: Can you name the regular citizens at the new WGOM?
