Royals Rally Past Astros for 2-0 Series Lead
|
The 20-year-old rookie on the mound turned out to be the least of the Greeneville Astros worries.
Giving a high-pressure playoff start to youngster Hugo Jimenez seemed like a risky move for the Astros, but it was one of the few things that went right at Burlington Athletic Stadium. Jimenez tossed 5 solid innings, but it was all for naught after Greeneville dropped a 4-3 decision. With the win, Burlington took a 2-0 lead in the best-of-5 Round 1.
The Royals were down to their last out in the bottom of the ninth inning, when 23-year old catcher Josh Peet landed a big blow. He turned a 1-0 splitter from Angel Morales into a 2-run single. The walk-off single sent the Burlington Athletic Stadium denizens into a frenzy and sent the Royals home with a thrilling 4-3 win.
"This place was rocking at the end," Peet said.
The next game is set to be played for Saturday, September 22nd , 2108 at Pioneer Park in Greeneville.
