SUGAR LAND, TX - Despite drawing nine walks in the contest, the Sugar Land Space Cowboys (1-1) fell to the Oklahoma City Comets (1-1) 8-2 on Saturday night at Constellation Field. Highlights from tonight's game can be found here.

Sugar Land got out to a lead in the first inning thanks to a Brice Matthews lead-off single, a steal of second and an RBI groundout by Quincy Hamilton to make it 1-0. However, a pair of baserunners scored on a Hyeseong Kim double off RHP Aaron Brown (L, 0-1) to give OKC the lead in the top of the second.

The Comets broke the game open in the fourth with a four-run inning, thanks in part to a Kim two-RBI triple, pushing OKC's lead to 6-2. Sugar Land claimed a run back in the fifth following a walk to Luis Guillorme, two wild pitches and an infield single by Hamilton. Oklahoma City responded with two runs in the top of the seventh, and the Space Cowboys were unable to convert a bases-loaded situation in the bottom of the seventh in the defeat.
