Bryan / College Station, TX - The Brazos Valley Bombers took down the visiting Frisco RoughRiders tonight, 7-2, to improve to 7-4 on the season. Two explosive innings and a great team pitching effort helped the Bombers bounce back after dropping the opener last night.

Taylor Smith extended that lead with a two-run blast over the left-field wall, claiming the first Bombers home run at Travis Field this season.

Logan Sartori added a fourth run for the Bombers with a sac fly to the center fielder to score Bryce Blaum. Smith, Manny Garcia and Sean Arnold crossed the plate in the bottom of the 8th to secure the Brazos Valley victory.

Smith earned player of the game honors, going 2-3 with two RBI's, a home run and a walk. Blaum only recorded one plate appearance, as he walked three times with one hit. Weyler extended his hit streak to 8 games tonight with a leadoff RBI double in the 1st.
