Dunedin Blue Jays News Release


SERIES FINALE WIN: Dunedin defeated Palm Beach by the final of 10-6 in 11 innings on Sunday afternoon. The Blue Jays tacked on three runs early in the top of the second. Samad Taylor ripped a two-run bomb to left for his fifth homerun of the year. Cal Stevenson followed later in the inning with a single to left to score Norberto Obeso to cap off the runs scoring second. The two teams exchanged runs in the third and in the visiting half of the fourth, Stevenson ripped a line drive to left center that rattled around in the alley to allow Cal to circle the bases for his second inside-the-park homerun in 2019 and extend Dunedin's lead to 5-1. RHP Maximo Castillo started for Dunedin and went 5.2 innings, giving up two runs, on six hits, and striking out five but did not factor in the decision. Palm Beach chipped away though with three runs in the sixth on Luken Baker's three-run shot to left, and tied the game off RHP Sean Rackowski with a run in the bottom of the eighth on Zach Gahagan's RBI single. The two clubs remained tied at five apiece until the 11th when the D-Jays busted out for five runs. Palm Beach mustered a run in the bottom of the frame, but fell short as RHP Emerson Jimenez picked up the victory after completing two innings in the 11th.
