PreStros Morning Report: August 13

Oklahoma City (63-59)

The losing continues for OKC - 10 straight and counting - as Sacramento scored the final four runs of the game in an 8-5 win over the RedHawks. Jose Cisnero lasted 2IP, allowing 5H/4R (2ER), 3K:1BB; Sergio Perez was charged with a third unearned run in his 3.2IP; Brian Sanches took the Brandon Lyon (BS/L) with 1H/1ER, 0K:2BB in 1.2IP. Jose Valdez allowed 3H/2ER, with the rare 4Ks in 1IP. Mark Hamburger faced one batter and got two outs to close the game. Landon Powell, Jose Valdez, and manager Tony DeFrancesco (whom Subber10 noted has perhaps lost the clubhouse) were all ejected in the 8th inning by home plate umpire Stephen Barga.

J.B. Shuck led the way with a 3x5, RBI night; Marc Krauss was 2x4, and Matt Downs was 1x5 with 2RBI. Mike Hessman hit his 30th homer of the season in the 2nd inning. Brian Bixler drew a walk and got a hit, scoring both times he reached base.

Man of the Match: J.B. Shuck.

Corpus (68-52)

A three-run 2nd inning by Springfield was all they needed, in a 5-2 win over Corpus to avoid the sweep. Paul Clemens gave up 9H/3ER, 3K:2BB with two wild pitches for the loss. Kevin Chapman threw 1.2IP, giving up 2H/0ER and striking out three. Jason Stoffel gave up 2ER on 3H in 1.1IP.

Jake Goebbert (2B) and Andy Simunic (2B) had your multi-hit games, while Jon Singleton got a double and a walk. The Hooks were 2x9 w/RISP and left six in scoring position with two outs.
