The Dust Devils knotted the game 2-2 in the top of the third as four consecutive batters reached base. After Adrian Placencia walked and Ben Gobbel doubled, Ryan Nicholson and Matt Coutney hit consecutive RBI singles to tie the game. Everett attempted to rally in the bottom half of the frame as Colt Emerson and Arroyo singled, but Tri-City starting pitcher Ryan Johnson escaped the jam.
Gobbel broke the game open in the top of the fourth inning, blasting a grand slam to left field to give the Dust Devils a 6-2 lead. Tri-City added their seventh run as Anthony Scull hit an RBI single. The grand slam concluded AquaSox starting pitcher Ashton Izzi’s outing as he exited after 3.1 innings. Izzi struck out five and gave up five hits.
Matt Coutney extended the Dust Devils’ lead to seven, crushing a two-run home run to right center field. Scull doubled, and Randy De Jesus doubled him home to set Tri-City ahead 10-2. Capri Ortiz continued the scoring efforts, knocking an RBI double of his own to conclude the inning’s offensive outburst.
The AquaSox attempted a late-game rally in the bottom of the eighth, placing runners on the corners with zero outs. With two outs, Suisbel hit into an RBI groundout. In the bottom of the ninth, Anthony Donofrio hit a 404-foot solo home run to score the night’s final run as the AquaSox fell 11-4.
