Yaquis Outlast Mayos 4-3

MAYO'S 3 RUN 9th NOT ENOUGH TO OVERCOME OBREGON

Although the Mayos de Navojoa scored 3 times in the bottom of the 9th, it was a case of "too little, too late" to stop the Yaquis de Obregon from taking the 4-3 win.

Dallas Martinez

Dallas Martinez (1-1), the Yaquis starter, held the Mayos scoreless on 4 hits through 5 innings to get the win. Obregon reliever, Brandon Brennan, pitched 1 2/3 innings over the 8th and 9th, allowing all of the Mayos runs, although only 1 was earned, on 4 hits to make the game interesting. Misael Siverio (0-2) allowed 2 runs on 5 hits over 4 innings to take the loss for Navojoa.

Obregon scored in the first on a double, a sacrifice bunt, a walk and an RBI single off of the bat of Jesus Valdez to take a 1-0 lead. They increased their lead to 2-0 in the 4th when Iker Franco singled to plate Leo Heras.

A run in the 5th and an RBI double by Moises Gutierrez in the 6th increased the lead to 4-0.

Consecutive singles by Victor Mendoza and Jovan Rosa and a walk to Marc Flores loaded the bases with no outs in the bottom of the 9th for the Mayos. A 4-6-3 double play scored Mendoza to cut the lead to 4-1. Carlos Mendivil walked and Christian Zazueta reached safely on an error by the third baseman that scored Rosa. Alejandro Gonzalez singled to plate pinch runner Diego Madero but Alonzo Harris flew out to right to end the game.

Manny Rodriguez

The Charros de Jalisco improved to 8-7 on the season with an 8-5 win over the Mayos de Navojoa on Tuesday night. Manny Rodriguez launched a grand slam in the 2nd inning to give Jalisco a comfortable 5-0 lead. But no lead is safe in the Liga Mexicana del Pacifico.

Navojoa clawed their way back to cut the lead to 5-4 after six innings but Jalisco scored 3 runs in the bottom of the 7th to add to their lead and get the win. With the loss the Mayos fall to 7-7 on the year.

Amadeo Zazueta hit a solo home run in the 1st for Jalisco, his first of two home runs on the night, to give the Charros the early 1-0 lead. The Rodriguez slam made it 5-0 after two.

Paul Leon doubled to begin the top of the 3rd for Navojoa and advanced to third on a wild pitch. Leon would score on a ground out to begin chipping away at the Jalisco lead.

The Mayos scored twice in the 4th, on a ground ball out that drove in Elmer Reyes and a single off the bat of Leon that plated Luis Fonseca. Another run in the 6th cut the Charros' lead to 5-4.

Jalisco scored 3 times in the 7th, including another solo home run by Zazueta and the Mayos scored a single run in the 8th. That would be all the scoring and the Charros had the 8-5 win.

Vince Molesky (2-0) scattered 7 hits over 5 1/3 innings of work to get the win. Grant Sides earned his 5th save of the campaign. Misael Siverio (0-1) gave up the first 5 runs to the Charros on 6 hits over 5 innings on the mound to take the loss.
