Thunder Drop Contest, 3-2, to Minnesota
|
In a low-scoring clash between Minnesota and St. Petersburg, pitcher Alberto Nieves was a difference-maker. The right-hander earned accolades in the 3-2 win. The winning pitcher was Nieves, now 10-6. He tossed 6.1 innings of 5-hit ball, while walking 0 and fanning 6. Carlos Piñeiro was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 6 of 6 save opportunities.
With no one out in the top of the seventh, Miguel Flores had a game-changing hit. The Loons second baseman slammed a run-scoring single off Gilberto Ruíz, making the score 3-1, Minnesota.
"I'm not out there for personal accomplishments," Nieves told a Minnesota Gazette reporter after the game. "I'm out there to help the team win, and that's what we did today."
The 6th-place Loons have a record of 50-52.
