Play By Play
Recap:
With
their major league counterparts slugging it out in New York, the Sand Gnats and
RiverDogs gave the fans in attendance a pitchers duel. Sand Gnats starter Kevin
McGowan extended his scoreless streak to 18.2 IP with his strong performance,
but he was matched scoreless inning for scoreless inning by an even more
efficient Jaron Long. Both teams would get multiple strong innings from their
first reliever out of the pen, but the Gnats would blink first in the bottom of
the 10th, as reliever John Mincone gave up a double and then walked
the next three batters (one intentionally) to end the game. This was a quick,
clean game that was fun to watch.
