(SUGAR LAND, Texas) - Pedro León padded his Pacific Coast League lead with his 13th double of the season Saturday night at Constellation Field.

His fifth inning double down the left-field line momentarily tied the game against the Oklahoma City Dodgers, driving in Lewis Brinson.

The Space Cowboys went on to lose 3-2 to Oklahoma City, evening the three-game set heading into series finale on Sunday.

Oklahoma City jumped out to a 1-0 lead in the first and the Space Cowboys countered in the third on an RBI single from Brinson. Stefen Romero put Oklahoma City up for good on the night with a two-run home run in the sixth.

Space Cowboys starter Chad Donato allowed three runs and struck out five batters through 6 2/3 innings of work. It was the longest start from a Space Cowboys pitcher this season. It was also one out away from matching Donato's career high.

Zac Rosscup and Ronel Blanco combined to throw a scoreless 2 1/3 innings in relief of Donato. Blanco, who struck out a pair in his scoreless inning of work, has struck out nine batters through five innings with the Space Cowboys this season.

The Space Cowboys finish out their homestand at 2:05 p.m. on Sunday vs. the Dodgers at Constellation Field. Shawn Dubin is set to start for the Space Cowboys, with Oklahoma City scheduled to start Ryan Pepiot.
