Amarillo, TX - For the second consecutive night, the Arkansas Travelers put up double-digit runs and got a quality start as they rolled over the Amarillo Sod Poodles, 11-3 on Wednesday night. A pair of early Travs leads disappeared as the Sod Poodles rallied to tie twice before Arkansas took control with a six run fifth inning. Marcelo Perez, making his Double-A debut, scattered nine hits over six frames while permitting just three runs and earned the victory. Every Traveler batter posted at least one hit with six players racking up two knocks.
