Brito hit a high bouncer down the 3rd base line for a 2-run RBI double to give the Pels an early 2-0 lead. Marcos Rodriguez walked following Brito’s hit, then Alonso hit a chopper to Brenan Herrera at third which took a high hop off his glove and rolled in left field which scored Brito to make it 3-0.
In the 2nd inning, the Pels struck again as Adolfo Gonzalez drove a ball off the left field wall to score Dallas Christison to jump out to a 4-0 lead.
