PAPILLION, Neb. - The Gwinnett Stripers (7-8) tied the game at 1-1 in the sixth inning on a two-out RBI single by David Fletcher, but the Omaha Storm Chasers (10-5) scored the final five runs of the game to win 6-1 on Sunday afternoon at Werner Park.
Decisive Plays: A solo home run by Nick Pratto staked Omaha to a 1-0 lead in the fourth inning, but the Stripers tied the score in the sixth as Skye Bolt led off with a triple and scored on Fletcher's two-out roller to right. The 1-1 tie lasted until the bottom of the sixth, when Michael Massey's two-out RBI double off Taylor Widener (L, 1-1) made it 2-1 Storm Chasers. Omaha added two runs in the seventh and two more in the eighth.
