Hops Use Late-Game Magic to Beat Hot N Readys
Yakima Hops starter Bryan McKinney was in fine form against the Little Caesars Hot N Readys at The Pizza Oven, leading his team to a 6-1 win. José Castaneda got credit for the win, improving to 1-3. He allowed no runs on no hits in 2.2 innings. Yakima has now won 3 in a row.

Lloyd Kent's hit in the top of the ninth was a game-changer. With one out, he rapped a curveball from Christian Mustard for a 3-run home run. It put Yakima in front, 4-1.

"We took advantage of our opportunities," McKinney told the Yakima Times. "It's as simple as that."
