Lincoln Saltdogs News Release
LINCOLN - Pat Trettel launched his first home run and Garrett Sherrill was terrific in relief but the Saltdogs fell to the Kansas City T-Bones 7-5 in 11 innings at Haymarket Park Tuesday night.
Lincoln extended its lead to 5-2 on a Phil Hawke double in the fifth inning but wouldn't be able to muster a run the rest of the way.
Johnny Bowden stroked a two-out, two-run single to even the score in the sixth and T-Bones tallied two in the top of the 11th to even the series at a game a piece.
Steven Stewart (3-3) pitched two scoreless innings in relief to earn the win. Paul Koss (1-4) allowed two runs in two innings to suffer the loss. Sherrill tossed three hitless innings, striking out three.
Trettel's home run was a solo shot to right to lead off the second inning.
Gavin Dickey was ejected from the game in the first inning arguing balls and strikes. Two T-Bones players and their manager were tossed in the late innings.
The Saltdogs are now 0-3 in extra-inning contests, all of which have been at home this year.
The teams meet Wednesday night at 7:05 p.m. for the rubber game of the three-game set. James Garcia (1-1, 6.30) will take the mound against Kris Johnson (0-2, 4.74). Radio coverage begins at 6:35 p.m. on KFOR 1240.
Come on out to Haymarket Park for Westfield Wednesday featuring Bark in the Park! Dogs get in free and there will even be a pet tricks contest! For team and ticket information please call 402-474-BALL or visit www.saltdogs.com.
