After being held hitless through the first four innings the Tri-City Dust Devils (9-8) came alive at the plate to earn the 12-5 victory on Sunday night over the Boise Hawks (8-9). The 12 runs were the most scored by the Dust Devils in a game this season.
Tri-City caught a major break to start the bottom of the fourth inning. Boise right fielder Cole Anderson dropped a fly ball that allowed the first batter of the inning to reach safely for the Dust Devils. Tri-City never looked back from that point, collecting all 12 of their hits and all 12 of their runs in the final four innings of the game. Grant Little provided a spark in his pro debut. The 74th overall pick from this year's Major League Baseball Draft had a pair of singles and drove in two of the team's 12 runs. Luis Asuncion also delivered for the Dust Devils. Asuncion had three hits, including two doubles.
Right-hander Angel Acevedo will start the fourth game of the five-game series on Monday night. Boise will counter left-hander Miguel Ausua. It will be a Coca-Cola Monday at Gesa Stadium, with all 22-ounce Coca-Cola products on sale for just one dollar. Great seats are available by calling the Dust Devils' front office at (509) 544-8789 or by going to www.dustdevilsbaseball.com to purchase tickets.
