GRASSHOPPERS REPORT
Sand Gnats 6
Grasshoppers 5
Site: NewBridge Bank Park, Greensboro
Why the Grasshoppers lost: Closer Peter Andrelczyk blew a three-run lead in the ninth inning, giving up four runs. The Grasshoppers also had the tying run on in the bottom of the ninth, but couldn't get Ryan Curry home. The blown save ruined a good performance by starter Kyle Kaminska, who pitched out of jam in the first and went on to give up only two runs in five innings and struck out eight.
Performances worth noting: For Savannah -- Greg Veloz 4-for-5, HR , 2B, 4 RBIs; Jose Jiminez 3-for-5, GW RBI. For Greensboro -- Bryan Petersen 2-for-4, 2 RBIs; Matt Dominguez 2-for-4, 2 RBIs; Mike Stanton, 1-for-4, HR.
Also worth noting: Petersen extended his hitting streak to nine games.
What they said: "His stuff is there. He's got a good arm and a good slider. It's a matter of getting ahead in the count. When you are always pitching from behind, you're going to get in trouble."
