Sugar Land Space Cowboys News Release
(ROUND ROCK, Texas) - The Sugar Land Space Cowboys continued their roll Thursday night winning their sixth in a row with a come-from-behind 4-3 victory over the Round Rock Express
The six-game winning streak matches the longest in franchise history and is the longest active streak of Triple A teams.
Lewis Brinson helped fuel the comeback win, going 3-for-4 with a home run and three RBI.
Brinson delivered a game-tying RBI single in the eighth and Alex McKenna's opposite-field double in the ninth brought home Korey Lee for the game-winning score.
It marked the Space Cowboys' first win this season when trailing after eight innings.
Brinson got the Space Cowboys on the board with his 11th home run of the season in the fourth. His 419-foot solo shot ricocheted off the roof of the left-field seating deck. He is tied for 10th in the Pacific Coast League with his 11 home runs.
Jonathan Bermudez matched his season high with six innings, striking out five while allowing two runs on four hits.
Enoli Paredes tossed a scoreless eighth to pick up the winning decision and Ronel Blanco notched his third save with a scoreless ninth. Blanco has allowed just two runs (one earned) across his last 10 outings (10 IP). He has picked up a save in three of his last four appearances.
Lee finished the night 1-for-3 with a double and a walk. He stole second base following his walk in the ninth to set up McKenna's game-winning double.
Josh Sale helped pace the Express offense, going 2-for-4 with a solo home run.
The Space Cowboys will look to make it seven straight wins at 7:05 p.m. on Friday night at Dell Diamond. Brett Conine is set to get the start for the Space Cowboys. Right-hander Kohei Arihara is scheduled to start for Round Rock.
