Obregon Needs 14 Innings to Defeat Charros de Jalisco 1-0

OBREGON WINS THEIR FIRST GAME UNDER NEW MANAGER SERGIO GASTELUM

The Yaquis went 24 innings without scoring a run but when the did finally score in the bottom of the 14th inning on Wednesday it produced a 1-0 win over the Charros. Last night's game was the 2nd consecutive 1-0 games between these teams.

The teams sent a total of 15 pitchers to the mound during the game, 9 by the Charros and 6 for the Yaquis.

Tomo Otosaka Doubles

Tomo Otosaka doubled to lead off the bottom of the 14th for Obregon and advanced to third on a sacrifice bunt by John Nogowski. Humberto Castellanos was intentionally walked to set up a potential double play. Cheslor Cuthbert foiled those plans by tapping a slow roller down the third base line. The throw to the plate was too late as Otosaka scored the winning run and ending the 4 hour and 36 minute game with the Yaquis win.

Both pitching staffs have been very good over the last 2 games, from starters to relievers they have allowed just 2 runs in 18 innings.

The crowds for these games have not been large, about 3,300 per game, but if you like close, low scoring games, Nuevo Estadio Yaquis has been the place to be.

These two teams meet again on Thursday the 25th of October for the rubber match of the series with Jalisco at 6-4 on the season and the Yaquis with a 4-6 record.
