PASCO – A seven-run top of the 7th inning dashed dreams of a victory for the Tri-City Dust Devils (26-30) Sunday afternoon, as the Vancouver Canadians (29-28) soaked up the sun and dashed away with an 11-6 win at Gesa Stadium to take five of the six in the weeklong
PASCO – A seven-run top of the 7th inning dashed dreams of a victory for the Tri-City Dust Devils (26-30) Sunday afternoon, as the Vancouver Canadians (29-28) soaked up the sun and dashed away with an 11-6 win at Gesa Stadium to take five of the six in the weeklong series.
Tri-City came to the 7th with a 5-3 lead after CF Anthony Scull’s two-run home run to right off Vancouver reliever Kai Peterson (2-1) in the bottom of the 6th. The ever-patient Canadians, leading all of High-A baseball in walks coming into the day, responded by drawing a pair of leadoff walks from reliever Jake Smith (1-3). An RBI double by Arjun Nimmala got Vancouver within a run, and two more walks brought home the tying run. Carlos Espinosa then came in, issuing a second bases loaded walk before 2B Nick Goodwin capped both the seven-run frame and a monstrous series with a grand slam to left. Goodwin set a Canadians franchise record by homering five times in the six-game series, bookending his game-winning 9th inning three-run shot on Tuesday night with the grand slam. The Dust Devils got a run in the bottom of the 7th on an RBI single by Scull, who drove in three on the day, but the offense stalled there. Earlier in the game, RF Randy De Jesus launched a two-run shot to give Tri-City a 3-0 lead in the bottom of the 2nd and 3B Ben Gobbel’s 1st inning RBI groundout opened the scoring.
DUST DEVILS NOTES
-Dust Devils starter Austin Gordon had a second solid outing, going five innings and giving up three runs on five hits. The Myrtle Beach, South Carolina native struck out five while walking two, keeping Tri-City tied after Vancouver scored three times in the 3rd inning.
-Three Dust Devils had multi-hit games with 1B Ryan Nicholson (3-5, R), Anthony Scull (2-5, 2-R HR, 3 RBI) and Randy De Jesus (2-4, 2-R HR) providing a combined seven of the nine Tri-City hits.
-Reliever Max Gieg threw a scoreless inning on his 24th birthday, allowing a hit but striking out two. The tall righty from Lynn, Massachusetts has held opponents without a run in three of his last four outings.
