Jalisco Triples Up Navojoa 9-3

7 RUN 5th INNING LEADS TO A CHARROS SWEEP OF THE 3 GAME SERIES

Orlando Lara (2-2), starting pitcher for the Charros, didn't throw a no hitter last night but he was effective over 5 innings, allowing 3 runs on 6 hits to get the win. Jose Oyervides (1-2) and reliever Oswaldo Martinez didn't fare as well. Oyervides gave up 5 runs on 8 hits in 4 innings and Martinez followed with 4 runs on 4 hits in 1/3 of an inning for the Mayos.

Navojoa had the lead after 4 1/2 innings. They scored twice in the 3rd and added a run in the 4th to take a short lived 3-2 lead.

Jalisco broke the game wide open in their half of the 5th, scoring 7 runs on 8 hits. The Charros sent 12 men to the plate in the inning. The big blow came off of the bat of Japhet Amador who crushed a low and outside fastball to right for the 2 run opposite field home run. Two batters later, Yadir Drake tripled to center to drive in a run and increase the Charros lead to 7-3. A 2 run single by Manny Rodriguez drove in the final two runs in the 9-3 victory by Jalisco.
