Hot N Readys Fall to Loons, 8-2
|
The Minnesota Loons got a stellar effort from pitcher Armando Marrero, helped Minnesota score a 8-2 win over the visiting Little Caesars Hot N Readys. Minnesota reliever José Larranaga was the winner. His record is now 2-6. The losing pitcher was Ordono Lima. This win makes it 1 in a row for Minnesota.
Had it not been for Michael Garrett, the results might have been different. In the bottom of the seventh inning, when the Loons were trailing 2-1, Garrett hit a 2-run single for Minnesota, giving his team the lead.
"That's the key at this level, throwing strike one," said Marrero. "Successful pitchers do it."
