Boxscore

Jalen Beeks went 5 2/3 innings, yielding two runs on three hits and a walk while whiffing eleven. Beeks was strong through five – getting the first 11 in order before Danny Espinoza reached on an error in the 4th and then got three more in a row before a Gift Ngoepe walk. Beeks got the first two outs in the sixth before giving up his first three hits of the game, all singles, and was replaced by Kyle Martin. Martin got three outs, but gave up an unearned run on a single, a wild pitch, and two walks; striking out two. Bobby Poyner struck out two of the four men he faced and got out. Williams Jerez walked one in his otherwise clean ninth inning.

Mike Miller mashed three singles in four match-ups. Ivan De Jesus drilled two singles and a double in five at-bats. Ramon Flores flipped a pair of singles in five forays. Mike Ohlman obtained a double, a walk, and a sacrifice fly in five ups. Jordan Betts belted a three-RBI double and drew a walk in five jaunts. Aneury Tavarez took a free pass and lined a single in five attempts. Rusney Castillo contributed a single in five trips. Jeremy Barfield was bopped with a pitch amid four hitless treks. Chad De La Guerra struck out twice in four hitless appearances.
