Venados Score Late Top Charros 5-4

CHARROS OUT HIT BY MAZATLAN 13-5

Elian Leyva pitched well for the home Charros over 5 innings, giving up 2 runs on 5 hits. The pitch he would like to have back though, was a 3 ball 2 strike fastball he threw to Anthony Giansanti. Giansanti hit that pitch deep to right for a 2 run home run that got Mazatlan on the board first with a 2-0 lead.

Jalisco responded with 4 runs in their half of the 2nd. Daric Barton both reached base safely on fielding errors by the Venados and Gabriel Gutierrez drew a walk to load the bases with no outs. Darian Sandford singles to score a run. After a pop up for the second out, Manny Rodriguez waited out a walk to force in Vasquez with the second run. Japhet Amador lined a ground rule double to left to plate Gutierrez and Sandford as Jalisco took a 4-0 lead.

Mazatlan tied the game at 4 in the top of the 6th inning on singles by Edson Garcia, Brian Hernandez, Asael Sanchez (that scored Garcia) and Anthony Giansanti that plated Hernandez.

The Venados scored what turned out to be the winning run in the top of the 8th inning. Quincy Latimore singled to lead off the inning and moved to second on a sacrifice but by Asael Sanchez. Latimore scored when while attempting to steal third, the Charros third baseman misplayed the throw from Gutierrez. That gave Mazatlan the 5-4 lead and the eventual win.
Winning Run Scores on Error

Adrian Ramirez (1-0) picked up the win for Mazatlan and Evan Marshall pitched a perfect 9th inning to earn the save. Joe Colon (0-1) suffered the loss giving up the run in the 8th.

These two teams play again on Sunday the 14th of October although switching sites to Mazatlan for game 2 of their Liga Mexicana del Pacifico opening series.
