The El Paso Chihuahuas struck out 17 Oklahoma City Dodgers in their 9-4 win Tuesday night. The 17 strikeouts were one shy of the team record.

Patrick Kivlehan went 2-for-4 with an RBI, extending his hitting streak to six games. Brian O’Grady went 0-for-5, ending his hitting streak at nine games. John Andreoli reached base three times and drove in three runs atop El Paso’s batting order.

Ben Ruta hit two doubles and now has 10 doubles this season, which is tied for the Triple-A West lead. Oklahoma City manager Travis Barbary and hitting coach Manny Burriss were ejected for arguing a called third strike in the top of the ninth inning.

Tuesday’s win ended the Chihuahuas’ four-game losing streak. The Chihuahuas do not play on Wednesday.
