MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. - The Wilson Warbirds jumped out to an 8-0 lead and Carlos Carra made that advantage hold up Wilson earned a series split with a 10-1 victory over the Myrtle Beach Pelicans on Sunday night at Pelicans Ballpark.

Wilson (26-25) opened the scoring in the third when Nick Monile crossed home via a wild pitch from Pierce Coppola (L, 0-4) for an early 1-0 advantage.

The Warbirds added to their total in the fourth when they scored three times, highlighted by a two-run double from Monile to extend the lead to 4-0.

There would be more offense one inning later when Luis Lameda was issued a bases loaded walk to push the advantage to 5-0. Kevin Garcia provided one final spark in the sixth when he cranked a three-run home run over the left field wall, his second of the season, to make the margin 8-0.

Carra (W, 2-5) was terrific for Wilson, hurling five scoreless innings, allowing just one hit and fanning six to earn the victory.

In the ninth, Wilson pushed across the final run of the game when Monile trotted home on another wild pitch to cap the scoring with the Warbirds in front 10-1.

Tyler Renz covered three innings out of the game before turning it over to Joses Meneses who slammed the door to cap the nine-run victory.
