Augusta GreenJackets News Release
Greenville, SC - Jeremy Toole fired six scoreless innings of three-hit baseball and Chris Dominguez hit his team's first home run in more than a week as the Augusta GreenJackets shut out the Greenville Drive by a 5-0 score at Fluor Field on Sunday afternoon.
With the win, the GreenJackets took three of four from the Drive and have now won nine of their last ten. Sunday's shutout win was the eighth of the season for the GreenJackets.
Toole (1-0) walked one and struck out five in his six-inning stint. He got early run support from Evan Crawford, who singled home a run in the third inning. Dominguez drilled a two-run homer in the sixth to put the GreenJackets up by three while Nick Liles added two more with a double to the right field corner in the seventh.
Manuel Rivera (2-4) pitched better than his line would indicate, but his tendency to get in trouble in key spots cost the Greenville lefty. He allowed three runs - two earned - on five hits and three walks with two strikeouts.
Chris Gloor and Mitch Lively held the Drive to two hits in three scoreless innings to finish the shutout for the GreenJackets.
The GreenJackets return home on Monday to open an eight-game homestand that runs through Memorial Day weekend, hosting the Rome Braves and Asheville Tourists. Kyle Vazquez (4-1, 2.61) takes the ball for Augusta to face Brett DeVall (1-2, 6.00) of the Braves. First pitch will come at 7:05 p.m. with the pregame action beginning at 4:50 p.m. on WRDW AM 1630, www.greenjacketsbaseball.com and www.wrdwam.com.
