Iowa Cubs News Release
SAN ANTONIO, TX - The Iowa Cubs (48-33) got another quality start from Alec Mills and beat the San Antonio Missions (51-33) by a score of 5-3 Monday night at Nelson W. Wolff Municipal Stadium.
Iowa jumped on Bubba Derby in the second inning for two runs via a Robel Garcia RBI double and a Mills RBI single. Mills took over from there on the mound, allowing just one run on four hits over seven innings pitched.
The righty matched his season-high previously done twice with seven strikeouts and spun his fourth quality start in his last five starts for Iowa.
A solo home run from Phillip Evans and a two-run blast from Taylor Davis gave the I-Cubs all the offense they needed to get the win.
San Antonio added a run in the eighth and ninth, but James Norwood earned his fourth save of the season with a five-out, four-strikeout effort to slam the door.
POSTGAME NOTES:
- With the victory, Iowa improved to 30-13 on the road this season.
