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.
