Mercedes completes 5 IP. Did hit 95 mph in his last inning, but also gave up a double and a single for a run. So 6 H, 3 ER, 2 BB and 2K, and it took 82 pitches. A decent if not great outing.
But Handelfry singles home Ereu to restore it a 3 run lead. 7-4.
Colmenarez gives up another run in his inning of relief, with offspeed stuff and a sinker that goes 88-90mph.
Next inning, a walk by FIelder, and have yourself a night, Roderick Flores, who hits his second homer of the season (and 2nd of the night), and it is a 9-5 lead. Every position player with a hit, there are 2 BBs drawn, and only 4 Ks so far for the offense.
