Corpus Christi extended the lead in the fourth. Brett Phillips knocked a two-run single to centerfield, putting the Hooks up 5-0.

Frisco threatened with a bases loaded chance in the fourth. Luis Marte hit a RBI-single to centerfield that scored Alex Burg, but Trever Adams was thrown out at the plate to end the frame.

Jio Mier and Reed added home runs in the eighth inning to cap off a five-run frame. Frisco scored three runs in the ninth, including a rare, two-run sacrifice fly from Luis Mendez, but the Hooks held on for the 12-4 victory.

Michael Feliz (2-2) earned his third win as he allowed one run on three hits in six innings. Aaron West notched his second save, pitching the final three innings.
