Corpus Christi Hooks News Release


SAN ANTONIO - The Missions picked up a series win Sunday evening with an 8-2 victory over the Hooks before an announced crowd of 3,054 at Wolff Stadium.

Corpus Christi has dropped four of its last six.

The Hooks owned a 2-1 lead until San Antonio sprang for five runs on four hits and two walks in the fifth. Corpus Christi starter Jose Bravo had retired 10 in a row before the uprising, which was keyed by consecutive doubles from Webster Rivas and Juan Fernandez.

The two Hooks runs came courtesy of Grae Kessinger, who cracked a two-out RBI double in the second and a lead-off home run in the fifth.

Kessinger is batting .310 with two doubles, three home runs and 10 RBIs in his last seven games.

Matt Ruppenthal was the lone CC hurler to escape unscathed. Ruppenthal, who struck out two in the eighth, has pitched scoreless ball in his last five assignments, covering 7 1/3 innings.

The Hooks are off Monday and begin a six-game series in Amarillo on Tuesday.
