Wahoos Erupt For Record 11-4 Win Over Montgomery
June 3, 2013
The Pensacola Blue Wahoos erupted on offense for a team record 11 runs in an 11-4 win over the Montgomery Biscuits on Sunday night at Riverwalk Stadium in Montgomery, Ala.
Pensacola claimed the initial lead in the second inning on a solo home run by Travis Mattair, his sixth of the season. Brodie Greene doubled home David Vidal later in the inning before Devin Lohman scored on a Danny Vicioso single. The Blue Wahoos added to their lead with a pair of runs in the third on an RBI double from Lohman and a wild pitch.
The Biscuits plated a pair of runs in the third against Wahoo starter Chad Rogers and added another in the fourth on a solo home run by Keith Castillo, who ended up finishing the night a triple shy of the cycle. Rogers left the game early with an undisclosed injury in the fourth inning with one out. He was charged with three runs on three hits in the no-decision.
Already leading 5-3, the Wahoos exploded for six runs in the seventh to put the game out of reach. Pensacola sent 10 batters to the plate in the inning and tallied six hits. Ryan LaMarre, David Vidal and Devin Lohman all had RBI hits in the inning before Danny Vicioso capped it with a two-run homer to left, his first of the season.
Shaun Ellis, Brian Pearl and Chris Manno combined to finish the final 5.2 innings. The only run the trio allowed was a mop-up unearned run in the ninth. Ellis (1-1) earned the win after working 2.2 scoreless innings. He allowed two hits and struck out one. Biscuits starter Jake Floethe (0-1) took the loss in his Double-A debut. He was charged with the first five runs on five hits over four innings.
Vicioso led the way offensively with a 3-for-5 game and three RBI. Vidal, Lohman and Greene each added two-hit games to spark the offense.
Pensacola looks to continue the momentum in the second game of the five-game set on Monday. The Wahoos will turn to LHP Ryan Dennick (2-5, 2.57) against Montgomery RHP Jacob Thompson (4-5, 5.47). First pitch is set for 7:05 p.m. from Riverwalk Stadium.
