Hooks Get 7-2 Win Versus Springfield
The Corpus Christi Hooks knocked off the Springfield Cardinals, 7-2, in Texas League action at Whataburger Field. Corpus Christi pitcher and Dunedin, Florida, native Matt Murphy had an outstanding performance. Murphy, now 1-0, was the winner. In 7 innings, he gave up 8 hits, while striking out 8, walking 0, and allowing 2 runs. Springfield falls to 2-2.

Had Elza Gravito not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the seventh, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and the bases loaded, Gravito hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 3-2, in favor of the Hooks.

"Matt attacked hitters and trusted his stuff," said Corpus Christi manager Ka-fei Ong.
