Sugar Land’s Lewis Brinson went 3-for-5 with two home runs and has hit three homers in the first three games of the series. Half of Brinson’s 18 home runs this season have come against El Paso.

El Paso third baseman Eguy Rosario went 0-for-4, ending his career-high 12-game hitting streak. The Chihuahuas were held to two hits, which tied a season low for hits in a game. The two hits allowed also matched a season low for Sugar Land’s pitching staff.
