TEXAS LEAGUE (DOUBLE-A)
Midland RockHounds 10
San Antonio Missions 7
WP: Emanuels 5-1 / 3.44
HR: Halter (2)
Designated hitter Colby Halter helped the RockHounds record their fourth straight win on Wednesday. The 23-year-old infielder had a pair of hits, including a two-run homer in the 1st inning, and drove in the go-ahead run with a sacrifice fly in the top of the 10th inning. Halter is now 6 for 13 with 3 extra-base hits in his last 3 games, and his .314 batting average is good for fourth-best among qualified hitters in the Texas League, while his .402 on-base percentage is best among all current RockHounds hitters. Right fielder Henry Bolte singled, walked twice, scored twice and tallied his team-leading 21st stolen base, while center fielder Junior Perez tripled, drew a walk and drove in 3 runs, and third baseman Luke Mann singled twice, scored twice, drew a walk and drove in a run for the RockHounds. Starter Kyle Robinson gave up 3 runs through 4 frames, while RHP Stevie Emanuels allowed 1 unearned run in 1 2/3 innings of relief and picked up the win for Midland.
