Sky Sox lose to Fresno on hit batter in the 10th

Sky Sox reliever Scott Munter hit Fresno’s Ryan Rohlinger with the bases loaded with two outs in the 10th inning, resulting in a 5-4 road loss Wednesday night.

The Sky Sox, who scored two runs in the eighth inning to tie the game, lost when Clay Timpner singled and moved up on a sacrifice. Matt Downs reached on an infield single, then Munter (4-3) intentionally walked John Bowker to load the bases.

He struck out Joe Borchard on a 3-2 pitch before hitting Rohlinger on a 1-1 pitch.

Rohlinger finished with a double and homer off Sky Sox starter Brandon Hynick and three RBIs for the Grizzlies. He scored twice.

Mike McCoy led the Sky Sox on offense with three hits. He scored twice, including the tying run in the eighth on Dan Ortmeier’s sacrifice fly.

Eric Young Jr. stole his 51st base of the season.
