Wahoos Fall 5-4 in 10 Innings
The Mobile BayBears got a bases loaded single in the bottom of the 10th to finished off their third straight win over the Blue Wahoos, 5-4, Sunday evening at Hank Aaron Stadium in Mobile. Tim Adleman made a spot start for Pensacola and fanned a career high eight batters over 5.0 innings in a no-decision. He allowed just one run in his first start of the year.
Pensacola battled from behind on three different occasions to tie the game, but never could take the lead. Pensacola forced extra innings with some good luck. Jesse Winker's fly ball to right-centerfield looked to be routine, but as BayBears centerfielder Evan Marzilli got to the ball, he slipped and the ball landed behind him for a double. Winker ended up scoring on a wild pitch and throwing error by the catcher. The double was one of two for the Blue Wahoos left fielder on the night.
Ryan Wright paced the offense for Pensacola with a 3-for-5 game. He also added an RBI. Kyle Waldrop had the Blue Wahoos other multi-hit effort with a 2-for-4 night.
Drew Hayes (L, 4-3) allowed the winning run in the 10th to suffer the loss. He allowed 1 R/ER on three hits over 1.1 innings. Willy Peredes (W, 4-1) picked up the win for the BayBears after working a scoreless 10th inning. Diamondbacks top prospect Archie Bradley took a no-decision after giving up 1 R/ER over 5.1 innings. He walked two and struck out three.
Pensacola looks to snap their three-game skid on Monday night with RHP Robert Stephenson (3-6, 4.24) on the mound against BayBears RHP Justin Fitzgerald (7-1, 4.04). First pitch is slated for 7:05 p.m. at Hank Aaron Stadium.
