Octopi Beat Hounds, 4-3
The Ogallala Octopi did just enough to sneak past the Hicksville Hounds, 4-3, at Nebraska Aquarium. Ogallala pitcher Alejandro Martínes, in particular, had a standout performance. Rhys Buggins notched the win in relief. The right-hander allowed 1 run on no hits in 1.1 innings. His record now sits at 1-0. Alonso Rivera picked up the save for Ogallala, his 1st of the year.

The game hit a turning point in the bottom of the second inning, when the Octopi were trailing 1-0. Rafael Molina delivered a two-out 2-run single for Ogallala, catapulting his team into the lead.

"We cashed in when we had the chance," said Ogallala manager Félix Cruz.

The loss drops Hicksville to 3-4.
