Arkansas Travelers News Release
Frisco, TX - Taylor Dollard delivered a good start but the Arkansas Travelers offense was held to only three hits in a 6-1 defeat at the hands of the Frisco RoughRiders on Thursday night. Dollard was knocked for a run in the first inning but settled in and lasted five innings retiring nine in a row at one point. He finished his night with three strikeouts and no walks. Arkansas tied the game in the sixth inning only to see Frisco score twice in the bottom of the sixth before scoring in the seventh and eighth innings as well.
Moments That Mattered
* The Travs opened the game with consecutive walks but failed to score in the first after a fly out and two strikeouts.
