Saltdogs Swept in Winnipeg
The Lincoln Saltdogs saw their South Division lead shrink to 1 game over Gary and St. Paul Monday night after a 2-1 loss to the Winnipeg Goldeyes before a CanWest Global Park record crowd of 8,668 in Winnipeg, Manitoba.
The loss was the Saltdogs’ fourth straight.Lincoln opened the scoring in the third. Albenis Machado led off with a double and scored one batter later when Bryan Warner’s routine grounder went through second baseman Ralph Santana’s legs. Winnipeg responded in the fifth. Harry Berrios singled to lead it off, went to second on a bunt single by Chad Meyers and kept going to third on catcher Kevin Sullivan’s errant throw.After a Donnie Ross ground out that moved Meyers to second, Al Corbeil singled home both runners to make it 2-1.
The Saltdogs threatened in the seventh after singles by Josh Patton and Sullivan put two men on with none out. Dan Underwood sacrificed them up, but Jay Yaconetti hit a grounder to shortstop Max Poulin, who threw out Patton at home.Mike Goss then flew out to end the inning and leave runners at the corners.David Manning (3-1) got the win for the Goldeyes after allowing an unearned run on six hits in 62/3 innings while walking one. Brian Rodaway (7-7) was the hard-luck loser, allowing both runs on six hits while fanning eight and walking none in going the distance for a league-leading sixth time.The Saltdogs open a three-game series with the Fargo-Moorhead RedHawks tonight at 7:05 before returning home to Haymarket Park to face the Sioux City Explorers on Friday.
