Spokane, WA - The Indians got back in the inning column Saturday night, as Richelson Pena tossed six scoreless innings leading Spokane to a 1-0 win over the Tri-City Dust Devils in front of a sold-out, standing-room only crowd of 7,025 fans at Avista Stadium.

It was a classic pitcher's duel as Pena and Helmis Rodriguez, both Northwest League All-Stars, kept the game scoreless for five full frames. Pena struck out five batters while collecting his fifth win of the season. He sports a 2.89 ERA.

Rodriguez would be the one to give, as he gave up a single to Josh Morgan to score Jose Trevino from third base with two outs in the sixth inning. Morgan raised his average to .316.

Erik Swanson allowed two hits and struck out four in two scoreless innings. Adam Parks threw a perfect ninth for his third save of the season. The Spokane pitching staff didn't allow a single walk for the first time this season.

Eduard Pinto, Trevino, Seth Spivey, Luke Tendler and Fernando Vivili each had a base hit in the contest.
