But unlike Thursday night, the Express (3-1) would not surrender the lead to the Stingers (1-3).&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tStingers starter Ricky Reynoso (Pacific) struggled with his control in his first start of the season, and lasted just 1 1\/3 innings, yielding seven runs.&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tAfter a 30-minute lightning delay in the bottom of the first, the Express came out in the second inning and put up six more runs, which was more than enough to secure the win.&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tDespite the loss, Danny Pardo (Montevallo) and Quincy McAfee (Pepperdine) both had solid nights at the plate at the top of the Stingers&#039; order. Pardo was a perfect 3-for-3, drew a pair of walks and drove in a run, while McAfee went 1-for-3 with two runs scores and two walks.&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tTheron Kay (Baylor) pitched the ninth inning in his first appearance of the season, and Jaymon Cervontes (St. John&#039;s River State) struck out four in four innings of relief.&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe Stingers also had their first Major League player make his debut on Friday night, as Jacob Barnes pitched a spotless frame of relief for the Milwaukee Brewers, striking out a pair.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tTonight&rsquo;s Center for Diagnostic Imaging player of the game was Danny Pardo.
