Dragons add a run in the 4th. Torreyes led off with a double, and after a walk and HBP loaded the bases he came home on a Barnhart sac fly.
Stalin Gerson has allowed just one hit but walked three through the first three innings.
He's walked two more in the 4th, and a Cedar Rapids sac fly ties it at 2. Gerson had only allowed 8 walks total in his first 7 starts prior to this.
Dragons go up 3-2 in the 5th. Hamilton's 70th steal puts him in scoring position, and Torreyes brings him home with a single.
Now D'Anna doubles off the right field wall to make it 4-2.
Hamilton was also caught for the 12th time this year stealing. That would put his YTD steal rate at 85.3%.
Gerson has a bit of a mini-meltdown after getting the first 2 outs. He gave up a solo homer, then loaded the bases, but got out of it without any further damage. 4-3 Dayton after 5.
Luca Panerati came in to pitch the 6th and gave up a solo homer. Tied at 4 after 6.
Dragons load the bases in the 7th but can't convert. Time to stretch, still tied at 4.
Panerati gives up a pair of 2 out walks but gets out of trouble. 4-4 after 7.
A Theo Bowe single is the Dragons only hit in the 8th.
Bottom 8 should be over, but Hamilton air mailed a throw over first. Chad Rogers now coming in to pitch.
Sounds like billy Hamilton made a great play to stab a ball well behind 2nd base, throw was a little wide, but the 1b was able to tag the runner to get out of the inning. I'm not sure if you can fault him for the throw or not, but the announcer was certainly excited about the range Billy displayed. However on a routine out, he threw the ball away to put a runner on 1st in the bottom of the 8th.
