Everett AquaSox News Release
SPOKANE, WA: The Everett AquaSox narrowly fell in the concluding game of their 2025 opening series, losing 3-1 to the Spokane Indians on Sunday afternoon at Avista Stadium.
Spokane broke the scoreless draw in the bottom of the fourth inning by scoring the first runs of the game courtesy of a two-run home run hit by first baseman Aidan Longwell. Two innings later, AquaSox center fielder Tai Peete doubled and would later cross home plate due to a throwing error committed on a pick-off attempt. Peete's double was his second of the series.
The Indians added a final run in the bottom of the eighth inning to conclude the afternoon's scoring as center fielder Jared Thomas hit his first home run of the season. Everett tallied only two hits during the contest as third baseman Brandon Eike recorded his first base knock of the season.
From the mound, AquaSox right-hander Evan Truitt made his season debut. The 21-year-old out of Charleston Southern impressed, throwing five innings of two-run baseball. He allowed four hits, struck out four, and walked only one. Out of the bullpen, right-handed pitcher Jesse Wainscott threw two scoreless innings, allowing only one hit and one walk.
