\n\t(Rochester, Minn.) <\/strong>–  The Rochester Honkers (13-13) hit six home runs in a 10-8 win over the St. Cloud Rox (18-9) Sunday afternoon at Mayo Field. Ryan Fitzpatrick (UC Irvine) <\/strong>became the fourth Honker ever to hit three home runs in a single game. Five batters in the Rochester lineup finished with multiple hits and six scored runs in the game. Zach Zubia (Texas) <\/b>extended his league-leading on-base streak to 26 games with two hits today.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tDrew Avans (Southeastern Louisiana) <\/strong>reached on an error by Honkers’ left fielder Mike Echavia (Nevada) <\/strong>in the top of the third inning. Avans came in to score on a wild pitch. Four pitches after Avans scored, Matthew Tarantino (Pacific) <\/strong>hit a solo home run to score the second run of the game.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tSt. Cloud’s starting pitcher, Jack Cushing (Georgetown), <\/strong>entered the game with a 0.72 ERA, which was third-best in the Northwoods League. After being held scoreless through three innings, the Honker offense finally got to Cushing in the fourth inning with solo home runs by Echavia and Ryan Fitzpatrick (UC Irvine)<\/strong>.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Honkers’ starting pitcher Beau O’Hara (Texas) <\/strong>held the Rox scoreless in the fourth and fifth innings, but gave up the lead in the top of the sixth inning on a solo home run by Ricardo Sanchez (Arkansas-Pine Bluff)<\/strong>.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Honkers put up six runs in the sixth inning off two three-run home runs by Fitzpatrick and Chris Ceballos (Orange Coast). <\/strong>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Flock returned the next inning to do even more damage. <\/strong>Zubia <\/strong>and Fitzpatrick homered back-to-back in the seventh, extending the Rochester lead to 10-3.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tSt. Cloud made a threat against the Rochester lead with a late comeback in the top of the ninth inning. The Rox loaded the bases to start the inning with a single and two walks. Angelo Altavilla (Nebraska) <\/strong>doubled to center field, which scored two runs. Brad Mathiowetz (Florida Atlantic) <\/strong>hit a three-run home run which brought the Rox within striking distance, but that would be as far as they would get.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tGarrett Cobb (Seminole State) <\/strong>was sent in to close out the ninth and struck out Avans for the final out of the game, earning his fifth save of the season.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tO’Hara earned the win (2-1) for the Honkers. He pitched six innings, giving up three runs (one earned) on ten hits. He struck out a batter and walked one.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tCushing took the loss (2-1) for the Rox. He pitched five innings, giving up five runs on eight hits. He struck out two batters and walked one.\n<\/p>\n
