Arkansas Travelers News Release


Corpus Christi, TX - Josh Hood rapped three hits and drove in four including a late home run while Michael Morales earned his first win of the season as the Arkansas Travelers downed the Corpus Christi Hooks, 6-1 on Sunday night. The Travs never trailed in the contest with Morales tossing the first five frames and only getting nicked for an unearned run. Jimmy Kingsbury, Juan Burgos and Brandyn Garcia closed the game out on the mound. Hood stole the show on offense, ending the night a triple shy of the cycle while knocking home four of the team's six runs.

Moments That Mattered

* Hood knocked home the first run of the game on a groundout scoring Yoyner Fajardo. He had walked, stolen second and moved to third on a throwing error.

* In the eighth inning, Hood put the game all but out of reach with a three run blast to left field with two out.

Notable Travs Performances

* SS Josh Hood: 3-4, run, 2B, HR, 4 RBI

* RHP Michael Morales: Win, 5 IP, 3 H, UER, 3 BB, 2 K

News and Notes

* The Travs salvaged a split of the six game series in Corpus Christi but remain three games back of first place Springfield in the division race with 12 to play in the first half.

* Hood's four RBIs matched a season high for a Traveler.

Up Next
