Chicago tied the game in the top of the sixth as Jacob Teter singled to centre, plating Henry Kusiak.
With neither side able to break the deadlock through nine innings, the Dogs capitalized in extras. In the top of the tenth, courtesy runner Andy Nelson advanced to third base and scored on a sacrifice fly to right field from Reggie Pruitt Jr., putting Chicago ahead 2-1. The Goldeyes were unable to respond in the bottom half.
James Bradwell earned a no-decision in an ultra-quality start, tossing seven innings while allowing just one run on seven hits with one walk and three strikeouts. Tasker Strobel kept the game tied with two scoreless innings, walking one. Ryder Yakel (L, 2-3) was tagged with the loss, surrendering the unearned winning run in the tenth and striking out one.
Chicago starter John Baker also took a no-decision, working six innings and giving up one run on six hits with one walk and four strikeouts. From the bullpen, Brock Bell threw one inning, allowing two hits and striking out one. Jacob DeLabio (W, 5-2) earned the win with two scoreless innings of relief, giving up two hits and fanning two. JC Keys (S, 3) notched the save with a perfect tenth, striking out one.
The Goldeyes will look to salvage a split in the four-game set when the series wraps up Sunday afternoon at 1:00 p.m. CDT. Luke Boyd (2-7, 4.53 ERA) gets the start for Winnipeg after picking up a win his last time out, while Chicago counters with right-hander Dwayne Marshall (1-1, 5.72 ERA).
