SAN ANTONIO - The Hooks made it two wins in a row Wednesday night, scoring three runs in the 11th to edge the Missions, 9-6, before 2,291 fans at Wolff Stadium.
After the clubs traded runs in the 10th, Will Bush broke the stalemate for good by coaxing a bases-loaded free pass. Trevor Nelson and James Nelson promptly added insurance with RBI singles. Hooks right-hander Ramsey David, who struck out both batters he faced in the 10th, survived two walks in the 11th for his first career Double-A win.
Much earlier in the evening, Corpus Christi jumped out to a 4-0 lead thanks to a big second inning. Bush kick-started the frame with a home run to right-center off lefty Jagger Haynes.
