Frisco RoughRiders Down San Antonio Missions, 6-3
Behind an early offensive explosion, the Frisco RoughRiders won their sixth game in a row over the San Antonio Missions, taking the game with a 6-3 win.
San Antonio (25-35) jumped on the board first against Frisco (33-25) starter Winston Santos (1-3) in the second inning with three runs to make it 3-0. Santos finished with 5.0 innings, allowing the three runs while striking out a season-best nine batters.
The Riders immediately volleyed back in the top of the third with five runs of their own against Miguel Mendez (2-2). Dylan Dreiling put Frisco on the board with a sacrifice fly before Orlando Martinez doubled in a run, Keith Jones II crushed a two-run double and Arturo Disla laced an RBI single to push the lead to 5-3.
That score held until the top of the seventh, when Marcus Lee Sang scored on a wild pitch to make it 6-3.
Dustin Saenz threw the last 2.0 innings for the Riders to earn his first save of the season with the Riders.
