Fort Worth Cats News Release
The Fort Worth Cats lost a 10-inning series finale to the Edinburg Roadrunners on Tuesday night by a score of 4-3.
Both teams were scoreless until the Cats (32-20) scored one run and Edinburg (23-28) scored two in the fifth inning.
Fort Worth tied it with a Cameron Monger sacrifice fly in the seventh and took the lead in the eighth on a balk by pitcher Alex Schmarzo before the Roadrunners tied it in the bottom half.
Cats' reliever James Giulietti loaded the bases in the bottom of the 10th and the Roadrunners won the game on a Travis Clark fielder's choice groundout.
