Rochester Honkers News Release
ROCHESTER, Minn. - The bases were loaded for Joel Roberts in the ninth, who powered one over the left field wall to cap off a night to remember at Mayo Field.
It was a shootout in Rochester, with the Honkers jumping out to a 5-3 lead after just three innings. It was a lead they held until a four-run eighth from the visiting Hot Tots fired them in front.
The Honkers responded in the ninth with an RBI single from Jake Jackson, who had another two-hit day to go along with three RBIs. That set up Joel Roberts with the bases loaded, whose grand slam improved the Honkers' record to 3-4.
Luke Stulka and Josh Outlaw both impressed in their debuts. Stulka finished 3-,5 and Outlaw finished with a strong 2-5 performance.
Allan Camarillo added another stellar performance to his impressive array with a 3-5 night, including a pair of doubles and a pair of RBIs.
