The Hooks (15-11) scored in the bottom of the 10th to tie the game, and in the bottom of the 11th to win an extra inning affair thanks to a walkoff single from Ben Orloff. Orloff, who didn't start, was one of three Hooks players with 2 hits in the game. The others were first baseman Erik Castro and rehabber J.D. Martinez.
