Box Score

CORPUS CHRISTI - Bryce Willits cracked a bases-loaded single in the 10th inning Wednesday afternoon, pushing the Hooks to a 6-5 win over Amarillo at Whataburger Field.

Corpus Christi, playing as the Honey Butter Chicken Biscuits before an Education Day crowd of 5,006, picked up their first walk-off victory of the year. The Hooks have won three in a row and five of their last six.

Bryan Lavastida erased a 2-0 deficit by doubling with two outs in the fourth, capitalizing on singles by Ryan Wrobleski and Rowdey Jordan.

Lavastida is batting .500 (11-for-22) with 10 runs scored, four doubles, and a home run over his last six games.

After scoring three times Tuesday in his return to Corpus Christi, Edwin Díaz plated a pair on Wednesday thanks to a fifth-inning home run and an RBI single in the seventh.

Colin Barber started the scoring in the seventh with a long home run to right field.

Hooks starter Jackson Nezuh struck out six while spreading two runs, three hits, and one walk in four innings. Tyler Guilfoil pitched a scoreless fifth after recording the save Tuesday night.

Amarillo managed to tie the game with a three-run eighth, prompting extras.

Wilmy Sanchez pitched a 1-2-3 ninth with Michael Knorr employing a line drive double play and caught stealing to keep the Sod Poodles at bay in the 10th.

CC capitalized on the relief to notch its first extra-inning win. Following two walks in the home 10th, one intentional, Willits accounted for the game winner with a single through the left side.

Willits and Díaz have teamed for five runs scored and three RBIs in their two games with the Hooks.
