ROUND ROCK, Texas – The Round Rock Express (2-3) earned its second straight win, this time with a 3-1 final score, over the El Paso Chihuahuas (3-2) thanks to two home runs during Saturday night’s contest at Dell Diamond.
Express LHP Matt Moore (1-0, 0.00) went home with the win thanks to a scoreless 3.0 innings of relief that saw four strikeouts. Chihuahuas reliever RHP Pedro Avila (0-1, 9.00) was tagged with the loss after allowing three runs on four hits and one walk with four punchouts during his 3.0 frames.
Along the Train Tracks:
The two teams went scoreless through the first five frames before Round Rock scored two runs in the bottom of the sixth. LF Leody Taveras was responsible for bringing home both runners with a home run onto the right-field berm to score himself and 2B Nick Tanielu, who had reached on a double.
El Paso avoided the shutout thanks to a Luis Campusano run in the seventh. The catcher knocked a single, moved to third thanks to a double from DH Aderlin Rodriguez then scored on a wild pitch.
Tanielu increased the Express lead to the eventual 3-1 final in the eighth inning when he knocked a 429-foot shot into left field.
E-Train Excerpts:
Both LF Leody Taveras and 2B Nick Tanielu tallied their first home run of the season during the contest, contributing to Round Rock’s first multi-home run game. The two hits were responsible for all three Express runs scored.
RHP Glenn Otto started the contest with a 4.0-inning performance on the mound that included just one Chihuahuas hit and five strikeouts.
Express RHP Nick Snyder earned the night’s save, and first of the season, after tossing a hitless ninth inning and striking one batter out.
