 |
| Tyler Alexander Struck Out 12 in the loss |
Tyler Alexander (1-1) threw 7 excellent innings for the Charros, striking out 12 and walking 3 in the 1-0 loss to the Mayos de Navojoa.
Alexander gave up 2 of those 3 hits in the bottom of the 2nd, a single to Quincy Latimore and a double to Christian Zazueta before Fernando Flores hit a sac fly to right that scored Latinore with the only run of the game.
The Charros loaded the bases with no outs in the top of the 5th. Art Charles drew a base on balls, Cacao Valdez singled, as did Alan Espinoza. Alejandro Ortiz ground into a 3-2-3 double play and Carlos Figueroa struck out to end the inning with no runs scored.
Jalisco put runners on first and second with 1 out in the top of the 7th but failed to score when Michael Choice struck out and Alberto Carreon grounded out to short for the 3rd out.

| Art Charles in the Field |
Art Charles drew a 1 out walk in the top of the9th and advanced to second on a wild pitch. Valdez was hit by a pitch but Espinoza skied out to center for the 2nd out and pinch hitter Fernando Valenzuela struck out to end the game.
This game of baseball is all about good pitching and timely hitting. The Charros got good pitching from Alexander but faced good pitching by the Mayos. Jalisco did not get the timely hitting while Navojoa made the best of their 3 hits.
Hector Velazquez (4-0) shut out the Charros for 6 innings and struck out 8. Conner Little, newly arrived in Navojoa earned his 1st save in his 1st opportunity.
