April 11, 2026 — EVERETT, WA: The Everett AquaSox emerged victorious over the Tri-City Dust Devils in a pitcher’s duel Saturday night at Everett Memorial Stadium, securing a 3-1 win to clinch both their fourth consecutive win and a series win.
The game began tight as neither Tri-City or Everett scored across the first four frames of the game, and the game was knotted 1-1 after five innings as the teams exchanged runs in the fifth. Tri-City scored their run as Randy De Jesus knocked an RBI single, and Everett plated the tying run on Jonny Farmelo’s sacrifice fly.
AquaSox starting pitcher Evan Truitt departed after throwing 5.0 innings of one-run ball, allowing only four hits and one walk while striking out six. With his performance, Truitt lowered his earned run average to 2.79 before turning the ball over to Casey Hintz, who delivered 2.0 scoreless innings of work and four strikeouts.
Calvin Schapira added a scoreless top of the eighth inning, allowing the AquaSox to spark a game-winning rally in the bottom of the eighth. Farmelo singled, Luke Stevenson doubled, and Felnin Celesten was intentionally walked to load the bases, allowing Josh Caron to draw a go-ahead walk to give the Frogs a one-run lead. Cushioning the lead with an insurance run was Luis Suisbel, who hit a sacrifice fly to deep right center field to set the Frogs ahead 3-1.

Locking down the save and the AquaSox victory in the top of the ninth was Oregon alum Brock Moore, who struck out two and allowed zero hits. Across three appearances this season, Moore has thrown 4.0 shutout innings, striking out 11 while allowing just one base hit.
