DeLeo's Blast Leads Carp to Win
June 5, 2024 - Midwest League (MWL)
Beloit Sky Carp News Release
BELOIT - Jake DeLeo crushed a two-run homer in the bottom of the eighth inning to help the Sky Carp to a 4-3 victory Wednesday evening over the Lake County Captains.
DeLeo's blast capped the win over the first-place Captains, and was supported by an outstanding pitching performance.
Nigel Belgrave (2-0) picked up the victory after pitching two scoreless innings to close out the game, while Jacob Miller allowed just two runs in six innings of work.
Torin Montgomery gave the Sky Carp a 1-0 lead with an RBI groundout in the first inning, and later Jorge Caballero came up with a clutch two-out RBI hit that tied the game at 2-2 in the sixth inning.
The Captains scored a run in the top of the seventh, setting the stage for DeLeo's big blast.
GAME NOTABLES
- Raquel Nortier provided a terrific rendition of the National Anthem.
