Oklahoma City Comets News Release


The Oklahoma City Comets secured a 6-5 walk-off win in the 10th inning against the Salt Lake Bees Thursday night at Chickasaw Bricktown Ballpark, overcoming a four-run deficit to snap a three-game losing skid. The Comets (18-12/64-41) scored two runs in the ninth inning with two outs to tie the score at 5-5 and force extra innings on a RBI double by Jose Ramos and RBI single by Chuckie Robinson. The Comets held the Bees scoreless in the top of the 10th inning before Justin Dean - the Comets' automatic runner at second base in the bottom of the inning - raced to steal third base when Ryan Ward struck out. A throw by Salt Lake catcher Zach Humphreys was offline and went into left field, allowing Dean to score the game-winning run on the throwing error. Salt Lake (12-18/41-63) had built a 5-1 lead through five innings. The teams exchanged runs in the fourth inning, including a solo home run by Nick Senzel, before the Bees went on to score four runs in the fifth inning. In the seventh inning, the Comets trimmed the Bees' lead to two runs on a RBI groundout followed by a RBI single by Ramos.
