Game Summary

Salt Lake came out firing in the first inning, plating four runs on four hits as nine batters came to the plate. Christian Moore ignited the rally with a towering 450-foot home run -- the longest by a Bee this season -- marking his second of the year. Moore's blast sparked a stretch of six consecutive batters reaching base via hit or walk. J.D. Davis followed with a double to center, setting the stage for Chad Stevens and Tucker Flint to drive in the inning's final three runs.

The Bees built on their early momentum in the third inning, erupting for seven runs on seven hits as 13 batters came to the plate to extend a commanding 11-0 lead. Sebastian Rivero delivered the highlight of the frame with a three-run homer to right-center -- his fifth of the season and a new Triple-A career high. J.D. Davis and Chad Stevens each collected two hits in the inning, with Stevens recording a pair of doubles into left-center.

Round Rock chipped away in the middle innings, scoring five runs behind a pair of home runs. Alan Trejo put the Express on the board in the fourth with a solo shot, followed by a four-run sixth inning in which nine batters came to the plate. Trevor Hauver provided the key blow with a two-run homer, followed by back-to-back doubles from Tucker Barnhart and Michael Helman that further cut the deficit to 11-5.

The Express continued their rally with three more runs in the eighth inning, as the first four batters reached base. The frame began with back-to-back walks, followed by an RBI double from Michael Helman -- his second of the game. Richie Martin then singled to center to score Helman and cut the deficit to three. However, the Bees responded by recording three consecutive outs, stranding Martin at third to end the inning.

The Bees had an opportunity to add insurance in the eighth after putting two runners aboard but were unable to capitalize. Sam Bachman took over in the ninth and closed the door, earning his second save since joining Salt Lake on May 13. His effort sealed the 11-8 victory and snapped the Bees' nine-game losing streak.
