CLEARWATER, FL: A 1-0 early hole didn't phase the Florida Fire Frogs on Monday night, who put together fantastic sixth and eighth innings to best the Clearwater Threshers, 7-1, in the set opener at Spectrum Field.
The Threshers jumped out in front in the second.
Things changed drastically in the sixth frame when Isranel Wilson led off with a solo bomb to right field, his first home-run since July of last season.
Garcia (1-2) retired the first 14 batters he faced in the game, but quickly ran into trouble in the fifth and sixth. He gave up two runs on four hits, a long ball, and fanned six batters in five-plus innings of work. Armas got just two outs and permitted two more hits in addition to the two runs and the homer he yielded to Ramos.
A one-out rally in the eighth brought in a handful of insurance tallies for the Fire Frogs.
