SAN ANTONIO, TX - After San Antonio scored 2 runs in the first inning Omaha tied it up in the second and keep it close until the seventh when the Missions blow the game open by scoring five runs on four hits at Nelson Wolff Stadium.
1B Ryan O'Hearn (1-4, 1 R, 1 H, 1 RBI, 1 HR) blasted a solo home run to right center fields off of LHP Drew Smyly (5.0 IP, 3 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 0 BB, 3 K). Later in the inning, DH Chase d'Arnuad (1-4, 1 H, 1 RBI) was driven in by a triple from Elier Hernandez .
