Sat, 9 August, 4:00PM, at Hyde Park - Kelly
Senators 14, Astros 11
Senator starter Matt Mothander pitched 5 strong innings allowing 1 earned run on 3 hits while striking out 6. Offensively, the Senators exploded for 10 runs in the first highlighted by big hits from Matt Coyne and Mothander. Game over, right? Wrong.
The die-hard Astros stormed back in the sixth scoring 8 runs on big hits by Matt Tocci, Jon Mayes, and Tyler Walsh.
In the top of the 7th, the feisty Astros narrowed the lead to 3 and loaded the bases with no outs. In came Jonathan Rheault, the Senator closer, to force a ground out at the plate and a game ending 5-2-3 double play. |
