Curry Lifts Tri-City Over Hillsboro

In front of a sellout crowd of 3,757 fans at Gesa Stadium on Saturday the Tri-City Dust Devils (6-10, 24-30) came away with the 4-1 win over the Hillsboro Hops (9-7, 33-21). Michael Curry's two-out double in the bottom of the eighth inning drove in three runs, giving Tri-City a lead they would not relinquish.
 

For the second straight night it was a pitchers' duel throughout most of the game between the Dust Devils and Hops. Tri-City starter Angel Acevedo again delivered a strong performance for the Dust Devils. Acevedo got the no-decision after allowing one run in six innings of work. Reliever Ramon Perez earned the win after keeping Hillsboro scoreless over the final three innings of the game.
