Rookie Masahiro Tanaka made the start for North Georgia. |
Metropolis CF Andrew McCutchen didn’t let Tanaka get too
comfortable, as he launched the game’s fourth pitch over the left field wall
for a leadoff homer and a quick 1-0 Avenger lead. Robinson Cano followed with a
single, but Tanaka settled down and kept the deficit to one.
North Georgia’s leadoff hitter Erick Aybar didn’t hit a
homer, but he did single to start a rally. Leonys Martin moved him to
third with a single of his own and the Yellow Jackets were in business. Slugger
Jose Abreu hit a rocket to center field, but McCutchen tracked it down for the
first out as Aybar trotted home with the tying run. McHugh struck out Adam
Jones and Torii Hunter to finish the inning, with the game tied 1-1.
The game stayed tied into the fourth, when Cano singled to
start the inning. After two strikeouts, Steve Pearce walked and brought Bryce
Harper to the plate, who singled home Cano to break the tie. Jayson Werth then
lined a double into the gap, scoring Pearce and Harper for a 4-1 Metropolis
lead.
Metropolis used the same formula in the fifth and sixth
innings, scoring runs on a McCutchen solo homer and Werth double, which gave
the visitors a 6-1 lead. McHugh had settled down after his shaky first inning.
He refused to let North Georgia start a rally and allowed single baserunners in
the third, fourth and sixth innings.
Avenger flamethrower Aroldis Chapman took the ball for the
bottom of the eighth with the top of the order coming up. He struck out Aybar
and Martin with nothing but fastballs and then gave the ball to Zach Putnam who
retired Abreu on a sharp ground ball to end the inning.
Robinson Cano collected a homer and four hits on the night. |
