Grasshoppers Slap 5-3 Loss on Rome
|
José Ortega was outstanding against Rome. The left-hander had a fastball that was virtually unhittable at times. The result was a Grasshoppers 5-3 win. The winner was Ortega. He threw 5.1 innings of 3-hit ball. The loser was Jesús Martínez. The setback makes Rome 80-52.
Steve Blackburn, who is tied for 2nd in the SAL with a .332 batting average, chipped in a 2-run home run for Greensboro in the bottom of the third. For the game, the catcher had 2 hits in 4 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 2 runs batted in.
"José was able to locate to both sides, up and down," said Greensboro manager J.A. Happ.
