In the second inning, Nate Baez tripled to lead off the inning. He scored on a ground out by Ben Ross .

Down 3-1, Ricardo Olivar ’s eighth home run of the season cut the deficit in half.

With the score still at 3-2 going to the bottom of the sixth inning, the Surge scored three runs. Gabriel Gonzalez led off with his sixth double since joining Wichita. He stole third base. With one out, Olivar walked. With two outs, Ben Ross drilled his fifth home run of the season to give the team a 5-3 lead.

KERNELS NUGGETS
Cedar Rapids 3, Peoria 4
Box Score
Down 4-1 going to the bottom of the eighth, the Kernels scored one run in the eight and one run in the ninth, but in the end, they fell just short on the scoreboard.

Hard-throwing Jose Olivares started. He gave up one run on two hits in four innings. He had four walks and six strikeouts . Kade Bragg gave up one run on three hits and a walk over two innings. He struck out three batters. Paulshawn Pasqualotto got the next two innings. He gave up two runs on two hits and a walk. He also had three strikeouts. Wilker Reyes had two walks and a strikeout in his inning.

Things were tough at the start for the Kernels. In the bottom of the first, Kyle DeBarge was called out on strikes. He disagreed with that umpire decision. In the top of the second, Olivares got a pop up to third base. Soon after, DeBarge was ejected by the first base umpire. Losing such an important bat that early in the game obviously doesn’t help the team.

In the bottom of the second inning, Danny De Andrade led off and was hit by a pitch. Jaime Ferrer singled to center with De Andrade going to third. Andy Lugo drove him in on a fielder’s choice.

In the bottom of the eighth, Poncho Ruiz led off with a single and went to third on a Misael Urbina double. Ruiz scored on a ground out by Kaelen Culpepper .

The bottom of the ninth began just like the second, with De Andrade being hit by a pitch. Ferrer bunted him to second. Lugo hit his second double to drive in a run and cut the deficit to 4-3.

Both the eighth and ninth innings ended with a Kernels runner on second. In the game, the Kernels were just 1-for-11 with runners in scoring position and left five runners on base.

Lugo led the way. He went 2-for-4 with a double. He also stole his first base in Cedar Rapids.

MUSSEL MATTERS
Fort Myers 0, Dunedin 3 (5 innings)
Box Score
These teams were supposed to play a doubleheader on Sunday. Instead, they were happy to get through five innings so that the first game counted. The second game was simply cancelled as the season’s first half runs down.

The Mussels were shut out and had just six hits. Walker Jenkins went 2-for-3. Bryan Acuna went 2-for-2. Acuna stole his second base since joining the team early in the week.
