Bolt Homers in Loss to Missions

The six runs scored Wednesday night at Nelson Wolff Stadium came on four swings, each an extra-base hit.
Skye Bolt's first Double-A home run broke a scoreless tie in the sixth, but the Missions answered in the home half of the inning on Ty France's two-run triple and Austin Allen's RBI double, taking a 3-1 lead.
San Antonio added a pair of insurance runs on Michael Getty's eighth-inning two run double and went on to a 5-1 win over the RockHounds in the opener of a four-game series.
Logan Shore tossed five innings of shutout ball, allowing two hits and two walks, before the Missions got to him for the three-run sixth.
The two-run double from Getty's in the eighth changed the complexion of the game as the 'Hounds out two men on in the ninth before T.J. Weir struck Sean Murphy out to close the door.
The Missions snapped a six-game losing streak (during which they lost the first half pennant race to Corpus Christi) while the 'Hounds fell for the fourth straight game and for the eighth time in their last nine games.
