Salt Lake Bees News Release


Salt Lake starting pitcher Kyle McGowin tossed six and two-third scoreless innings to lead the Bees to a 5-3 win over the Albuquerque Isotopes on Monday night. McGowin (4-4) allowed just five hits with eight strikeouts and one walk. The Bees took a 1-0 lead in the second inning, as Nick Buss walked, moved to third on a double by Ryan Jackson and scored on a ground out by Quintin Berry. Salt Lake would extend the lead to 2-0 in the fourth on an RBI single by Brendan Ryan. They would add three more runs in the eighth after two outs and nobody on base. Buss singled, Jackson and Berry walked to load the bases. Albuquerque pitcher Simon Castro came out of the bullpen and committed a balk before throwing his first pitch to bring home Buss. After Juan Graterol was hit by a pitch, Ryan followed with a two run single to center to make it 5-0.

The Isotopes came back with three runs in the bottom of the eighth off of Salt Lake reliever Lucas Luetge and they threatened in the ninth. After two outs, Javy Guerra walked back to back batters to put the potential tying runs on base before striking out Mike Tauchman to end the game and earn his eighth save of the season. Ryan led the Bees with two hits and three runs batted in, while Buss added two hits and scored two runs. The Bees have now won all seven games versus Albuquerque this season and nine consecutive meetings going back to last season. Salt Lake is now 4-3 on their current road trip with one game remaining in Albuquerque on Tuesday night.
