AMARILLO, Texas - Behind a season-high 20 hits, the Frisco RoughRiders dropped the Amarillo Sod Poodles 7-3 to start the second half on Tuesday night from HODGETOWN.

After neither team scored in the first three innings, Frisco (1-0, 40-29) found the scoreboard in the fourth with two runs against Amarillo (0-1, 36-33) starter Daniel Eagen (2-1) thanks to RBIs from Marcus Lee Sang and Frainyer Chavez.

In the fifth inning, Malcolm Moore hammered his first career Double-A home run to make it 3-0. Then, Chavez and Rafe Perich both blasted two-run shots in the sixth to extend the lead to 7-0.

Following six scoreless innings, Frisco starter Aidan Curry took the mound in the seventh and, despite allowing his first three runs, set his career high in innings for a second consecutive start, covering 6.2 innings for the Riders. Curry surrendered just four hits and struck out five.

Up 7-3, Anthony Susac and Cole Stasio combined to close out the win with scoreless relief work.
