Yaquis Drop Charros 2-1 in 11 Innings

WALK OFF HIT BY PITCH DOES IN JALISCO

The Yaquis de Obregon and the Charros de Jalisco plated a 3 game series in Obregon with the Taquis taking 2 of 3. The story is this. The 2 teams played 2 extra inning games, one 14 innings and yesterday's 11 inning contest scoring just 5 runs in 34 innings. To have the game yesterday end on a walk off Hit By Pitch seems to be a travesty of justice.

Jalisco won the 1st game of the series 1-0 in regulation. Obregon took game 2 by a 1-0 score in 14 innings on a walk off slow roller to third and the Yaquis needed 11 innings to come away with the win in game 3.The series did nothing to help with batting averages but helped immensely with ERAs.

The teams used a total of 14 pitchers in this game seven by each side.

Tomas Solis
Tomas Solis (1-0) pitched the top of the 11th to get the win while Luis De La O (1-1) gave up a run on a walk, 2 hit batters and a hit in the bottom of the 11th to take the loss.

Cheslor Cuthbert scored the Yaquis 1st run in the 2nd inning on a throwing error by the Charros second Baseman for the early 1-0 Yaquis lead.

Jalisco tied the game in the 4th  on walks to Manny Rodriguez and Japhet Amador and a single by Dariel Alvarez that scored Rodriguez from second.

The game came down to this. The Charros reliever, Luis De La O, gave up a single to Tomo Otosaka, who went to second on a sacrifice bunt. Jesus Valdez was intentionally walked and Cuthbert was hit by a pitch to load the bases with 1 out. A pop up to third for the second out brought Jose Aguilar to the plate. De La O hit Aguilar with a pitch to force in Otosaka with the winning run.

The Charros fell to 6-5 on the year with the Yaquis improving to 5-6.
