Cal Raili scored two domestic runs, his leading league-Agni 34th and 35th of the season, as Seattle Meriners defeated Pittsburg Pirates 6–0 on Friday afternoon in a three-game interlayer series opener.
Randy Arzrena and Dialon Moore also got deep and Brian Wu (8-4) played six scorer innings for Seattle, which snatched the pirate’s six-game winning streak.
Raley took his career to a high level for homeers, last year when he hit 34, and tied the franchise record before the all-star break installed by Kane Grife Junior in 1998.
After reaching the base on an error Julio Rodriguez, Rale hit two runs in the first innings, landing three rows from the top of the second deck in the left area. The ball traveled 433 feet at a speed of 115.2 mph, which was the most difficult hit of Rale’s career.
Arozrena went on a single shot with one in the fourth, the ball went secretly inside the field foul pole. This was his fifth homer in the last five matches.
Raley took a 4–0 lead in the sixth on a two-out fly ball, which cleaned the fence in the field of left-center.
Moore, in the 1-for-38 slump, a two-run shot in the left area in the Pirates’s Bulpen was placed in line, with a seventh place to be out 6–0 with one in the seventh position from Braxton Eshkraft.
Wu allows three hits – all Nick Gonzalas – two moved and came out of eight. Wu played at least six innings in all his 17 in this season, the only pitcher in Major is going to do this.
Pirates Starter Belly Falter (6-4) allowed only three hits in 5 2/3 innings, but all of them approved the outfield fence. Falter gave four runs (three earned), not a batsman and whipped four.
Pitching Staff of Pirates, who had shut down St. Louis in each of the last three matches, stretched the 31-inning scorer streak.
