Brevard County Manatees News Release


VIERA, Fla. - The Brevard County Manatees dropped their third game in a row as they were defeated 8-3 by the Daytona Cubs on Tuesday night at Space Coast Stadium.

Manatees (27-37) starting pitcher Brooks Hall (1-3, 4.89) went just four innings as he allowed seven runs - four earned - on ten hits. Hall ran into trouble in the fourth as he allowed four runs, as the Cubs (29-34) took a 7-2 lead.

Hall started the fourth by allowing a lead-off triple to Chad Noble, who scored one batter later on a sacrifice fly. Ronald Torreyes then reached on an error by Mike Walker at first. Nelson Perez and Greg Rohan then had back-to-back singles as Rohan's scored Torreyes.

Hall then threw a wild pitch to put runners on second and third with one out. After a sacrifice fly plated the third run of the inning, John Andreoli singled to left to give Daytona a 7-2 lead.

Despite 11 hits, the Manatees didn't do much else offensively, as they struck out eight times, left ten men on base and went just 2-for-14 with runners in scoring position.

Shea Vucinich led the way at the plate as he went 3-for-4 with two runs scored. Walker and Michael Reed both had two hits each. In his first seven games with the 'Tees, the 19-year-old Reed is hitting .400 (8-for-20) with five RBI and three runs scored.

Brevard County will look to snap its three game skid as they host the Cubs again on Wednesday at 6:35 p.m.

Andy Moye (2-0, 5.89) is slated to get the start on the mound for the Manatees. In his only other start against the Cubs back on May 31, Moye allowed six earned runs in five innings of work.

Daytona will send Robert Whitenack (0-1, 5.68) to the hill. In his only other start against the Manatees back on May 29, Whitenack went just 4 1/3 innings and allowed three earned runs on ten hits.
