BILOXI, MS – Despite a furious ninth-inning comeback that saw the Biloxi Shuckers (18-24) storm back from a 4-1 deficit to tie the game at four, the Birmingham Barons (27-14) scored in the 10th to take game three of the series, 5-4, at Shuckers Ballpark. The game marked the second straight in the series to go to extra innings.
In the first, Birmingham opened a 1-0 lead when Brooks Baldwin lined a two-out home run to left. The Shuckers, however, answered in the bottom of the first with a two-out home run of their own, this time to center from Brock Wilken, tying the game at one. Wilken’s homer traveled 409 feet and was his third of the year.
The Barons retook the lead in the third with a sacrifice fly from Wilfred Veras. They added on with a bases-loaded walk to Jacob Burke and a sacrifice fly from Alsander Womack. With the bases loaded and two outs, Kaleb Bowman entered for Biloxi and ended the inning on two pitches, inducing a flyout to center and keeping the deficit at three.
With the Shuckers trailing 4-1, Bowman combined with Sam Gardner to toss 6.1 no-hit innings out of the bullpen, striking out six over that span. Bowman tossed 3.1 shutout innings with three strikeouts while Gardner struck out three over three scoreless.
In the ninth, the Shuckers stormed back with a single from Brock Wilken and a double from Ernesto Martinez Jr., putting runners at second and third with nobody out. Carlos Rodriguez, next up, singled to center, scoring Wilken. Darrien Miller then stepped up and laced a triple down the right-field line, scoring two and tying the game at four. Jose Acosta entered for Miller as the pinch runner, but reliever Caleb Freeman struck out the next three batters, stranding Acosta at third and sending the game to extras.
In the extra frame, the Barons retook the lead at 5-4 with an RBI single from Tim Elko. Jordan Mikel then picked up his first save of the season with a perfect 10th inning. Freeman (2-0) earned the win while Blake Holub (0-1) took the loss despite allowing one unearned run in his appearance.
The Shuckers return to action on Friday at 6:35 p.m. against the Barons. Jacob Misiorowski (0-0, 2.32) is set to start for Biloxi against Drew Thorpe (6-1, 1.50) for the Barons.
