facebooktwitterreddit

Omaha lost Game 3 of the Pacific Coast League Championship, 3-0 as Reno took a two games to one series lead.

Nate Adcock pitched well, as he lasted eight innings. He allowed all three runs on four hits and two walks while striking out eight. Unfortunately he gave up two homeruns with one out in the top of the 3rd inning. AJ Pollock hit a two-run homerun and Tyler Kuhn followed with a solo homerun on the very next pitch. Three of the four hits Adcock allowed came in that 3rd inning.

The Storm Chasers offense let Adcock down. They only picked up five hits and went 0-for-6 with runners in scoring position. Anthony Seratelli picked up two of those hits.

The two teams meet again on Saturday night for Game 4 in which the Storm Chasers try to even the series and send it to a decisive Game 5. Veteran Doug Davis will get the start for Omaha.

The winner of the PCL Championship will face Pawtucket on September 18th in the Triple-A Championship. The Red Sox, the wild card in the International League, swept Charlotte 3-0.
