Post Game SummaryStat Savant
atHowlers at PelicansThe Howlers scored the go-ahead run in the top of the seventh on a walk by Alejandro Garza that brought Ben Cleary home, then held on to beat the Pelicans 11-7. Garza went 2-for-3 with 3 RBIs to lead the offense, while the Pelicans managed just one home run despite out-homering efforts. The Howlers improve to 48-64; the Pelicans fall to 44-66. The teams meet again Saturday.
The Howlers grabbed control in the seventh when Garza drew a walk that scored Cleary, moving Jhorvic Abreus to third and Yerlin Luis to second, and that proved the difference in a game that came down to execution.
Garza was the offensive backbone of the win, going 2-for-3 with 3 RBIs and providing the clutch moment the Howlers needed. The Pelicans matched the Howlers in home runs overall, actually registering one while the Howlers had none.
Daniel Avitia took the loss for the Pelicans despite a solid outing: 5.0 innings pitched, just 1 earned run, and 5 strikeouts—the kind of line that typically keeps you in a game.
The Howlers are coming off a loss, 4-6 over their last 10. The Pelicans are coming off a loss, 2-8 over their last 10.
The Howlers are up next home vs Cannon Ballers (Aug 27-29). The Pelicans are up next at GreenJackets (Aug 27-29).
Ranked by win probability added: how far each player's plays moved this game's odds, not how their box-score line reads. A single with the bases loaded in the ninth outranks a home run in a blowout, because that is what actually decided it.
