CLEARWATER, FL – Despite a great outing from the back end of the bullpen, and a career day for Dante Nori, the Clearwater Threshers (11-9) fell 5-3 to the Fort Myers Mighty Mussels (11-9) on Saturday night at BayCare Ballpark. The Threshers look to secure a series split when they host Fort Myers in Sunday’s series finale.
Fort Myers took the lead in the top of the third, breaking a scoreless tie with a two-out solo home run to take the lead. They plated two more on a throwing error in the top of the fourth to extend their advantage to three runs.
Diego González led off the sixth inning with a walk and quickly moved to second on an errant throw on a pickoff attempt by Fort Myers reliever Jakob Hall. With two outs in the inning, Nori knocked a single into centerfield that plated González, putting the Threshers on the board in a 3-1 deficit. Fort Myers got the run back and one extra, adding two runs in the top of the sixth to extend their lead to four runs.
Avery Owusu-Asiedu led off the seventh with a double to left-centerfield, moving to third on a single by Aroon Escobar. He scored on the first out of the inning, and a sacrifice fly from Nori cut the deficit back to three runs. With two outs in the inning, Griffin Burkholder drove in Escobar from second, cutting the Mighty Mussels’ advantage down to two runs.
Despite 3.0 shutout innings from Clearwater’s bullpen to finish the game, the Threshers couldn’t get a runner on in the ninth, dropping Saturday’s contest by a 5-3 margin against Fort Myers.
Luke Gabrysh allowed one run on one hit with two walks and one strikeout in 3.0 innings. Jake Eddington allowed two unearned runs on one hit with two walks and two strikeouts in 2.0 innings. Gabriel Barbosa allowed two runs on three hits with one strikeout in 1.0 inning. Ryan Dromboski struck out four, retiring all six batters he faced in 2.0 scoreless and hitless innings.
