David Dahl went a combined 4-for-8 with three RBI on Thursday and hit a walk-off double in the second game to send the Isotopes (52-58) to a 5-4 victory over Round Rock (52-58) at Isotopes Park. The Express won the continuation of Wednesday's suspended game earlier in the day, 12-5.

Dahl had two hits in the second game while catcher Anthony Bemboom also contributed at the plate with a three-run homer in the second inning.

D.J. Johnson earned the win on the mound after coming in for rehabbing starter Chad Bettis. The start was Bettis' third with the Isotopes as he allowed four runs and five hits in 6.0 innings. The right-hander also compiled four strikeouts and walked two batters.

In the continuation of Wednesday's suspended game, the Express scored in each of the first six innings as they handed Isotopes starter Peter Lambert his second loss at the Triple-A level. Lambert went 1.1 innings surrendering six runs (two earned) and six hits before he was ejected by home plate umpire Brett Terry.

Brendan Rodgers made his Triple-A debut in the contest, going 2-for-5 with a run scored. The infielder is rated the Rockies number one prospect and sixth overall in all of Minor League Baseball by MLB.com.

The Isotopes wrap up their three-game series against the Round Rock Express on Friday evening at Isotopes Park. First pitch for the series finale is slated for 6:35 p.m.?
