Oklahoma City Comets News Release


Chuckie Robinson homered, and the Oklahoma City Comets overcame a three-run deficit in a 4-3 win against the Round Rock Express Saturday night at Chickasaw Bricktown Ballpark. The Express (34-40) loaded the bases in the third inning before Blaine Crim connected on a two-run single. Round Rock then brought in another run later in the inning on a sacrifice fly to take a 3-0 lead. Alex Freeland logged the Comets' first run of the night in the third inning when he lined a double into left field. Robinson later sent a two-run home run out to left field in the fourth inning to tie the score, 3-3. Oklahoma City (45-29) took its first lead of the game in the sixth inning, bringing in a run when Round Rock was charged with throwing error on a stolen base attempt that allowed James Outman to score the go-ahead run. The Comets then held the Express scoreless over the final six innings with José Rodríguez (4-1) picking up the win, Edgardo Henriquez earning a hold and Alexis Díaz recording his first save with OKC.
