AUDIO HIGHLIGHTS

 

VIERA, Fla. - A fourth-inning sacrifice bunt provided the only run that Brevard County Manatees would ultimately need as they recorded their first shutout since May 9 as they blanked the Jupiter Hammerheads, 2-0 on Wednesday night at Space Coast Stadium.

 

With one out and the bases loaded in the fourth, Chadwin Stang came up and laid a bunt down the first base line. Stang nearly beat it out for a hit, but nevertheless he did his job to bring home Cody Hawn and put the Manatees on the board first.

 

Brevard County (33-30) starting pitcher David Goforth (6-5, 3.07) kept the Hammerheads (33-31) at bay as he threw 6.1 scoreless innings. On the night, the FSL All-Star allowed five hits, while walking three and striking out four. Goforth stranded two Jupiter base runners in each of the first three innings and then faced the minimum number of batters until a one-out error in the seventh.

 

For Goforth, it was his fifth win in his last seven starts and he improved to 4-1 with a 1.62 ERA in seven starts at home this season.

 

After that error and a single, Goforth's night was done and Stephen Peterson came in to get out of the jam as he induced to fly outs to end the inning and leave the two runners on base. Peterson retired two batters in the ninth and allowed a double, before giving way to Tommy Toledo for the four-out save attempt.

 

Toledo struck out Austin Nola swinging to end the top of the eighth and in the bottom of the eighth; Brevard County plated an insurance run as Mitch Haniger led off the inning with a solo home run. Both Haniger and Rafael Neda went 2-for-3 for the 'Tees.

 

After allowing a single to Ryan Goetz to lead off the ninth, Toledo retired the next three in order to earn his ninth save of the season and give the Manatees their fifth shutout victory of 2013.

 

Brevard County and Jupiter will close out their four-game set with the series finale on Thursday night at 6:35 p.m. It will also be the final game before the All-Star break.

Sounds Defeat Storm Chasers, 5-4

Nashville Records Fourth Win In Last Five Games

Nashville Sounds

Jimmy Nelson (Mike Strasinger / Nashville Sounds)

 

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - The Nashville Sounds continued their recent winning ways on Wednesday evening at Greer Stadium, hanging a 5-4 defeat on the division-rival Omaha Storm Chasers.

 

Nashville (23-41) recorded its fourth win in the past five contests and its sixth victory in the last nine.

 

Jimmy Nelson made his second Triple-A start for the Sounds and battled with control issues, walking six batters and striking out five in 3 2/3 innings while throwing only 40 of his 84 pitches for strikes. He allowed three runs on five hits and took a no-decision.

 

Nashville jumped out to an early lead with a four-run outburst in the second against Omaha starter Justin Marks (1-6).

 

After three batters drew walks from the left-hander to fill the bags, third baseman Ozzie Chavez put the Sounds on the board with a bases-loaded, two-run double down the left field line. Blake Davis added a third tally on a groundout before Hainley Statia plated Chavez with a one-out single to left.

 

The Sounds tacked on a run in the third when Sean Halton's two-out double to right plated Josh Prince (2-for-3), who had singled. The two-bagger extended the Halton's longest hitting streak of the year to eight games.

 

Omaha jumped onto the board with three runs off Nelson in the fourth. After Adam Moore and Chad Tracy drew consecutive one-out free passes from the right-hander and Willy Taveras singled to load the bases, Jarrod Dyson put the visitors on the board with a run-scoring fielder's choice. Christian Colon and Johnny Giavotella followed with back-to-back RBI singles that cut the Sounds' lead to 5-3.

 

Later in the frame, Kyle Heckathorn (3-1) inherited a two-out, bases-loaded jam from Nelson but escaped without further damage as he induced an inning-ending grounder from Anthony Seratelli.

 

The Storm Chasers pulled within a run at 5-4 in the sixth against left-hander Zach Kroenke. Taveras led off with a double off the left-center wall and scored on a one-out Colon single. Omaha had the potential tying run in scoring position with only one out but Kroenke worked through the frame with no further damage.

 

Omaha again put the tying run into scoring position at second with one out in the eighth but Jesus Sanchez induced a groundout and flyout to keep the one-run lead intact.

 

Rob Wooten, the fifth Sounds reliever of the night, took over in the ninth and allowed a pair of singles before striking out Dyson to end the contest and nail down his 12th save of the year.

 

The Sounds look to nail down their third winning series in the club's last four when the teams wrap up the series with a 7:05 p.m. finale on Thursday evening. Right-hander Tyler Thornburg (0-7, 6.75) will man the bump for the Sounds on Burger King Throwback Thursday and face Omaha southpaw Chris Dwyer (4-4, 3.58).

Final: DSL Braves 9, DSL Brewers 3

 

DSL Brewers Box Score

 

Juan De Los Santos went 2 for 3 with a double and was hit by a pitch as the team's designated hitter. Right fielder Leudi Otano singled twice and drew a walk. Catcher Natanael Mejia went 1 for 2 with a home run. Shortstop Gregory Munoz singled and walked. Sthervin Matos early season struggles continued as he went 0 for 2 and committed three throwing errors before being replaced. Shortstop Daniel Leonardo did not play after leaving yesterday's game after he was hit by a pitch. Carlos Belonis was absent from the Brewers lineup again as well. Nattino Diplan took his second loss of the season, going just three innings and giving up six runs, four earned. He also threw four wild pitches and walked three so it looks like control was an issue for him. Joshua Torres pitched two scoreless innings, striking out three. Boanerges Nova allowed three runs, two earned, over two innings. Axel Cordero tossed the final two scoreless innings.
