Corpus Christi Hooks News Release
SAN ANTONIO - Ripken Reyes homered to start the seventh inning Tuesday night, lifting the Missions to a 5-4 win over Corpus Christi before a crowd of 4,976 fans at Wolff Stadium.
Thanks to round-trippers by Robbie Tenerowicz and Robert Perez Jr., the Missions garnered a 2-0 lead after four against Aaron Brown.
The Hooks fought back by scoring three times in the fifth, a frame fueled two hit by pitches, singles from Colin Barber and Jeron Williams, as well as a bases-loaded walk from Jordan Brewer. Jeremy Arocho knocked in the third run via a sac fly.
Corpus Christi's lead was fleeting as Brandon Valenzuela clubbed a two-run clout to right in the fifth for a 4-3 SA edge.
Barber evened the score in the seventh with a 397-foot to right-center for his sixth home run in 31 games.
Alejandro Torres retired six of seven in relief for the Hooks, with the exception being Reyes' long ball.
Lefty Brayan De Paula turned in a scoreless eighth.
