Along the Train Tracks:

Two more runs scored for the Space Cowboys in the fourth as 3B Shay Whitcomb hit a two-run home run that scored LF Will Wagner for a 3-0 lead.
Sugar Land RF Quincy Hamilton made it a 4-0 game with a solo dinger in the fifth inning.
Round Rock avoided the shutout thanks to a solo home run from RF Sandro Fabian in the top of the sixth.
