Can-Am League Results
Published on May 24, 2013 under Canadian American League (Can-Am) News Release
Wichita 10, New Jersey 4
A late New Jersey rally in the eighth inning, marked by an error in center field that allowed 2B Jose Cuevas, 3B Nick Giarraputo, and DH Yasanberty Arbelo to score, was not enough for a comeback in Wichita as the Wingnuts beat the Jackals 10-4.
Though New Jersey scored first in the second inning off of an RBI single from Cuevas, DH John Rodriguez hit a two-run home run to give Wichita a 3-1 lead in the third, which the Jackals never came back from. Rodriguez was only 2-for-5 in the game, but had 3 runs and 3 RBIs for the Wingnuts. Cuevas, who led the league in batting average prior to the game, was only 1-for-3 in the loss.
RHP Junior Guerra earned his second win this season for the Wingnuts, striking eight out and allowing just one run in his seven innings. Offensively, New Jersey struggled to get runs, leaving 10 men on base.
