In what amounted to a one-game season, Tampico used a pair of two-run home runs and turned a timely game-ending double play to defeated New York, 4-2, in a Weaver Division Wildcard game.
The Stogies advance to play the Weaver champion Lake Okeechobee Lizards in opening round playoff series. Tampico is 2-1 in wildcard games and is 5-2 versus New York in post-season contests.
Tampico came up with some big defensive plays in the ninth inning protecting a two-run lead. Eduardo Escobar walked to lead off the inning but was thrown out stealing by Welington Castillo on a failed hit-and-run. Chad Pinder then reached on an error by pitcher Adam Warren. Warren made up for the mistakes by inducing a double play off the bat of Kyle Schwarber to end the game.
The Knights stranded seven players in the game, three in scoring position. They left runners and first and third in the fifth. New York had at least one runner on base all but one inning.
In the seventh, New York had runners at second and third with one out but Kenley Janson got the Stogies out of the jam by striking out Wilson Contreras and getting Lonnie Chisenhall to line to short.
The Stogies took a 2-0 lead in the first with none out when Tommy Pham belted a two-run home run to left that scored Matt Carpenter who had doubled to open the inning.
New York tied things up in the second on a two-out, two-run home run by Pinder. The blast scored Melky Cabrera, who singled with one out.
The lead didn’t last long as Mitch Haniger walked to open the second and scored when Randal Grichuk followed with a two-run home run.
New York starting pitcher Ariel Miranda kept his team in the game by retiring the next nine batters he faced. In the fifth, Tampico stranded runners at first and third.
Tampico’s Urena worked 4.2 innings allowing two runs on five hits. Three Stogies relievers tossed 4.2 scoreless innings to register the win.
With runners at first and second in the fifth Sam Tuivailala got Chisenhall to fly out to right. Chisenhall picked up the win. Jansen and Warren each worked two scoreless innings. Warren picked up the save.
