Ariel Ovando had an rbi double in 3 trips and Rio Ruiz added a double, but that was about it for highlights in a game that was all Peoria from the outset.

Jake Elmore extended his hitting streak to 9 games with a double and Brandon Laird also had a pair of hits in a losing effort.

AAA: Memphis 9 Oklahoma City 0
Memphis scored 8 times in the bottom of the 5th to send Oklahoma City to a 9-0 loss in the Opening Game of a doubleheader.

AAA: Oklahoma City 8 Memphis 7
The RedHawks (1-1) survived a furious 7th inning rally by the Redbirds and held on for their first win of the season in Game 2 of their season opening doubleheader.

AA: Springfield 2 Corpus Christi 0
The Hooks (1-1) were held to just one hit as the Cardinals evened their two game series at one game apiece.

Nick Tropeano was the hard-luck loser allowing just a run on three hits in five innings of work.
