Oklahoma City (4-9)
Round Rock pitcher Zach Jackson took a no-hitter into the 8th before Carlos Corporan broke it up, and then scored three runs. It wasn't enough and Round Rock wins 5-3. Ryan Rowland-Smith threw well, going 5IP, 5H/2ER, 2K:1BB, and Ross Wolf threw two perfect innings. Andy Van Hekken allowed 3H/3R (2ER) in 1IP, and Casey Fien allowed 1H/1BB in 1IP.
Brian Bogusevic was in the lead-off spot for (what I think is) the first time this season, and went 0x4. Manzella and Dopirak were each 1x3 with a walk, Drew Locke and Carlos Corporan had RBIs, and Oswaldo Navarro provided the other RBI on a sac fly. Anderson Hernandez was 1x3 with two errors.
Man of the Match: Ryan Rowland-Smith.
