MOBILE, Ala. - The Mobile BayBears, the Double-A affiliate of the Los Angeles Angels, outlasted the Jackson Generals 6-5 Monday night at Hank Aaron Stadium to win the five-game series.
With the game tied 5-5 in the bottom of the eighth, Bo Way came through with an RBI triple to put Mobile (30-43 overall, 3-2 second half) back in front. Despite blowing the save in the top of the eighth, Ryan Clark (1-0) recorded the final three outs in the ninth to earn his first win of the season.
After falling behind 3-0 in the top of the first, the BayBears rallied back to take the lead in the bottom of the frame. Jo Adell scored his first of two runs on a Brendon Sanger single, and Jhoan Urena followed with a three-run homer. Adell finished the game 2-for-4 and has collected multiple hits in nine of his 17 games with Mobile this year.
Ramon Hernandez and Jamie Westbrook hit solo home runs for Jackson (41-34, 2-3) in the sixth and eighth, respectively. The Generals left 12 runners stranded in the game.
