Corpus Christi Hooks News Release
CORPUS CHRISTI - Caeden Trenkle's two-run home run in the eighth inning Saturday night sent the RockHounds to a come-from-behind, 5-4 win over the Hooks before 4,496 fans at Whataburger Field.
Corpus Christi has lost seven in a row, with six setbacks decided by two runs or one.
The bulk of the Hooks offense came in the first as they scored three times thanks to an error and consecutive two-out singles by Pascanel Ferreras, Austin Deming, John Garcia, and Jose Gonzalez.
Deming went 3-for-4 with a double on the day.
