Wahoos Win 4th Straight
August 18, 2017
For the first time since June 15, chalk up a “W” next to Keury Mella on your scorecard.
Pensacola scored four runs in the sixth and six runs in the eighth to surge past Mississippi for their fourth consecutive win.
In just his second game since joining the Wahoos, Arismendy Alcantara had a monster night going 3-for-6 with two triples, a double, two RBIs and three runs scored. Pensacola’s 14 hits fell one shy of tying their season-high for hits in a game.
Alcantara led off the game with a triple and would come home to score on Gavin LaValley’s sac fly to right. The 1-0 lead was short lived when Dylan Moore launched a game-tying homer to left in the bottom of the frame.
However, Mella demonstrated tremendous resiliency after the homer to Moore by retiring the next eight Braves that came to the plate. Unfortunately, the ninth Brave was Moore who again hit one sharply off Mella, this time for a double.
After a pop out, Alex Jackson singled to left to score Moore, putting Mississippi back on top 2-1.
That lead would last Mississippi up until the sixth inning when the Wahoos hit for the cycle as a team and sent 10 men to the plate in their four-run rally.
Aristides Aquino got the sixth started by taking Braves starter Mike Soroka deep for his team-leading sixteenth homerun of the year. After a walk and a single, Alcantara unleashed his second triple of the night, giving the Wahoos a 3-2 lead.
Soroka then surrendered a double and a walk undoing what was otherwise a very strong outing by the Braves top right-handed pitching prospect. Jacob Webb replaced Soroka and helped strand a pair of runners after striking out Aquino to end the sixth.
With the lead returned to him again, Mella dialed it in on the mound and finished his night with just two earned runs over six innings giving the righty his first quality start since July 30.
The fourth inning that gave the Wahoos the lead would be overshadowed by an eighth inning that saw 11 Wahoos come to the plate. Jonathan Reynoso led off the inning with his second homer of the season in what would prove to be the tip of the iceberg for the Pensacola offense. Two base hits and five walks later, the Wahoos took the field in the bottom of the eighth with a comfortable 11-3 lead.
The Braves added a pair of consolation runs in the eighth and the ninth inning to make it an 11-5 final.
Aquino, Trahan and Guerrero each finished with 3 hits, with Aquino coming a triple shy of the cycle.
With the Wahoos win and the Jacksonville’s win over Mobile, the Wahoos will enter play tomorrow still 2.5 games behind the Jumbo Shrimp in the South Division.
