The Oklahoma City Comets held the Albuquerque Isotopes scoreless through eight innings on the way to a 7-2 win Friday night at Chickasaw Bricktown Ballpark. Comets pitchers retired 17 straight Isotopes batters between the third and eighth innings as Oklahoma City built a 7-0 advantage. Oklahoma City (24-19/70-48) scored the first run of the night in the fourth inning on a sacrifice fly by Ben Rortvedt. The Comets went ahead, 3-0, via a two-run triple by CJ Alexander in the fifth inning. Oklahoma City added a run in the seventh inning on an Albuquerque fielding error before closing with three runs in the eighth inning. Noah Miller knocked a two-run single and Oklahoma City's final run of the night scored on a fielder's choice coupled with a missed catch error by Albuquerque. The Isotopes (17-26/48-69) ended the shutout in the ninth inning, scoring two runs.
