1B Ryan O'Hearn (1-4, 1 R, 1 H, 1 RBI, 1 HR) blasted a solo home run to right center fields off of LHP Drew Smyly (5.0 IP, 3 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 0 BB, 3 K). Later in the inning, DH Chase d'Arnuad (1-4, 1 H, 1 RBI) was driven in by a triple from Elier Hernandez .
The Missions' LF Cory Spangenberg (3-4, 3 H, 2 R, 5 RBI, 1 HR) drove in 5 runs, including a two-run longball in the first inning. 2B Nate Orf (1-2, 1 H, 3 R, 0 RBI) was productive against Chasers pitching by getting on base three times and coming across the plate each of those times.
RHP Scott Blewett (5-7) takes the loss after pitching four and two-thirds innings while Smyly (1-0), who was recently acquired from the Rangers organization gets the win.
