Final: Colorado Springs 6, Fresno 1

 

SKY SOX RALLY IN EIGHTH TO EVEN SERIES WITH GRIZZLIES

 

FRESNO, CA. – The Sky Sox engaged in another tight pitching contest with the Fresno Grizzlies for the second night in a row Wednesday evening, this time coming away as the victors after rallying for four runs in the eighth inning to take game two 6-1.

 

After last night's pitching duel in game one, game two began in similar fashion. Eric Thames proved to be the only Sky Sox batter to collect a hit in the first two frames, with a two-out single in the first. The Grizzlies also had a quiet start to the game, going three up and three down in the bottom of the first. In the first at-bat of the bottom of the second inning however, A.J. Reed hit a solo homer to straight center field to give the home team a 1-0 lead. The Grizzlies collected two more singles in the inning, but Colorado Springs starter Adrian Houser was able to get out of the inning without further damage.

The Sky Sox struck back in the top of the next inning, with Dylan Moore leading off the third frame with a triple for Colorado Springs. With one out on the board, Kyle Wren hit a sacrifice fly to score Moore from third and tie the game at 1-1.

 

Both pitching staffs settled in for the next four innings, not allowing another run to cross the plate until the eighth. Nate Orf led off the inning with a walk, advancing to second with a stolen base, marking his twelfth steal of the 2018 campaign. With one out, Jett Bandy was hit in the upper back by a pitch, being replaced at first base by pinch-runner Keon Broxton. Wren, who up to that point was 0-for-2 on the night with the sacrifice fly in the third, hit a three-run homer to give the Sky Sox a 4-1 lead, with Wren being responsible for all four of Colorado Springs' RBI.

Andres Blanco followed Wren's bases-clearing homer with a single, followed in turn by a single off the bat of Thames, advancing Blanco to third. Shane Opitz then came into the game to pinch-run for Thames for the Sky Sox second pinch-runner of the inning. With Jacob Nottingham at the plate, Opitz stole second, with the throw down to second dribbling into center field to allow Blanco to trot home from third to give Colorado Springs a 5-1 lead.

 

After a scoreless bottom of the eighth inning, the Sky Sox extended their lead in the top of the ninth, doing so with no hits in the frame. Tyrone Taylor reached on an error, and Orf reached on a hit-by-pitch. Moore grounded out to advance both runners, before Broxton was hit-by-pitch to load the bases for Colorado Springs' fourth hit batsmen of the game. Wren then hit yet another sacrifice fly for his fifth RBI of the evening to give the Sky Sox a 6-1 lead. That lead would hold, with the Sky Sox taking game two to even the series.

 

Tomorrow's Preview: In the final game of the three-game set against the Fresno Grizzlies at Chukchansi Park, the Sky Sox are sending right-hander Corbin Burnes to the mound to face righty Cy Sneed.

 

Wren Rakes: Kyle Wren, who recently came off the disabled list, had five RBI Wednesday night against the Fresno Grizzlies, going 1-for-3 with a three-run homer and two sacrifice flies. Just four days earlier, on June 2 at home against the Iowa Cubs, Wren also had five RBI after going 2-for-4. The two sacrifice flies by Kyle Wren ties the club record for sacrifice flies in a game. Wren's two sacrifice flies marks the 18th time a Sky Sox player had two sacrifice flies in a game (done twice in 2017 by Andrew Susan on April 18th, 2017 vs. Memphis, and by Garrett Cooper on June 20th, 2017 vs. Oklahoma City, both at home in Colorado Springs). The 5 RBI by Wren gives him 143 RBI in his Sky Sox career, closing in on joining the Top 25 in career RBI. Choo Freeman and Webster Garrison are tied for 25th place with 145 RBI.

 

Orf Snags Another: Nate Orf's stolen base Wednesday night gives him 25 career stolen bases with the Sky Sox (regular season), moving into the Top 25, in a four-way tie for 24th place, joining Neifi Perez, Jeff Salazar, and Juan Sosa. Next at tied for 22nd place with 26 SB: Craig Counsell and Derrick Gibson.

 

Strong Rehab: Eric Thames, who joined the Sky Sox on a rehab assignment Wednesday night, went 2-for-4 with two singles against the Grizzlies.

Box Score / Game Log

 

Houser and Bubba Derby loving Fresno, could be the Brewers' AAA home starting 2018. Now about those late night game times (notice all the "reasonable" scores in Fresno home games this year); Thames played first base, we may see some OF time there as per reports.

Nice to see they are stretching our Houser. Can't have enough starting pitching prospects, and he has the stuff to be a #2-3 starter if he can locate, in my opinion.
