Biscuits Edge Wahoos 3-1

June 21, 2013

The Montgomery Biscuits got home runs from Todd Glaesmann and Cameron Seitzer which proved to be enough as the home team evened the series with a 3-1 win over the Blue Wahoos on Thursday night at Riverwalk Stadium.

Montgomery starter Mike Colla held the Blue Wahoos to just one hit over his seven innings of work. The lone hit, however, was a solo home run by Theo Bowe in the third which tied the game at 1-1. It answered the Biscuits run from the bottom of the second when Seitzer scored from second base on a two-out single from Mark Thomas.

Glaesmann hit, what proved to be, the game winning home run leading off the bottom of the fourth before Seitzer belted his first home run of the season in the sixth.

Pensacola got its leadoff man on in each of the last two innings against Biscuits closer C.J. Riefenhauser (S, 10), but the Wahoos were kept off the scoreboard both frames. Yorman Rodriguez singled to leadoff the ninth, but was stranded at first when the next three batters were retired. Marquez Smith nearly tied the game with a deep fly out to the right field corner for the first out. Travis Mattair battled to extend the game, but he struck out after an 11 pitch at bat. The Montgomery closer finished off the game with a strikeout of Tucker Barnhart to nail down his 10th save of the season.

Ryan Dennick (L, 3-8) allowed all three Biscuits runs over his six innings. He walked just one and struck out five despite taking the loss. Colla (W, 2-0) picked up the win for the Biscuits. The Biscuits lefty walked three and struck out three over his seven one-hit innings of work.

Pensacola will try to bounce back on Friday night. RHP Daniel Renken (1-5, 3.88) will get the nod for the Wahoos against Biscuits LHP Enny Romero (6-2, 2.86). First pitch from Riverwalk Stadium is scheduled for 7:05 p.m.
