Andres Gimenez gave the Ponies' the early lead with a two-run homer in the first inning. The Cats tied the game after an Andres Sotillo RBI single and a Brock Lundquist RBI groundout in the second. Ryder Ryan earned the win with 2.2 scoreless innings of relief. Joey Pulido suffered the loss as he was tagged with one run in 2.2 innings. Adonis Uceta earned his sixth save with a scoreless ninth.

BOSSART'S BIG HIT: With his go-ahead two-run double in the eighth inning Saturday night, Austin Bossart now has three RBI in his last two games. They were his first RBI as a member of the Rumble Ponies. The catcher has 31 RBI on the season.

GIMENEZ HOMERS: Andres Gimenez's two-run home run in the first inning Saturday was his second of the week and eighth of the season. They were his first two homers of the month. Over the last eight games, he is 10-29 (.345) with four RBI, three runs scored, three multi-hit games and those two homers.

RYAN'S SCORELESS OUTING: Ryder Ryan matched the longest outing of his career as a reliever by throwing 2.2 scoreless innings Saturday. He allowed just one hit and struck out four. Over his last eight appearances, Ryan has allowed just one run and has struck out 14 over 17.2 innings of work.
