Fresno finishes series with 4-3 walk-off win over Sacramento

May 21, 2019 - Pacific Coast League (PCL) - Fresno Grizzlies News Release

Fresno, California (Monday, May 20) - The Fresno Grizzlies (23-21) walked-off on the Sacramento River Cats (21-23) 4-3 in 10 innings from Chukchansi Park. Down 3-0 in the bottom of the fourth, the Grizzlies had yet to record a hit. Carter Kieboom changed all of that with one swing of the bat, powering a solo shot to left-center field. One inning later, Brandon Snyder raked the second hit for Fresno, a bomb to left field. Trailing by one with two outs in the eighth, Collin Cowgill scurried home on a wild pitch. This would send the game into extras. In the 10th, Cowgill once again used his speed to score on a Bengie Gonzalez game-winning sacrifice fly.

Austin Slater highlighted the Sacramento offense with three hits and two runs. The 4-5-6 part of the River Cats lineup each recorded one RBI while Ryan Howard added a pair of hits. Sam Selman (1-1) was given the loss despite not allowing a hit.

Logan Ondrusek (1-0) enjoyed the victory in his first game with Fresno. Ondrusek fanned three over three solid innings. He followed Paolo Espino, who hurled seven frames of three-run ball. Espino punched out eight, tying a season-high. The Grizzlies improved to 5-2 in extra-inning affairs with a 3-1 mark against the River Cats.
