Fourth Inning

Martinez retired his ninth straight WhiteWing to lead of the inning as Santana popped out to center field. Nichols made it 10 with  groundout to Flynn, who got the ball to Ugueto just in the nick of time. Baez walked on a wild pitch and stole second to snap Martinez's streak and put himself in scoring position. Cruz struck out to end the inning, giving Martinez his seventh of the game.

Santos led of the bottom of the inning with a home run, his fourth of the season,  to give the Broncos a 3-0 lead and a run scored in three straight innings.

Moron followed with a groundout to first baseman Nichols, then Morales blooped a single into center to bring Flynn back to the plate with one on and one out. Morales took second base on a wild pitch to move himself into scoring position, but Flynn drew Vasquez's fourth four-pitch walk to negate the steal and put men on first and second and start a session at the mound. Vasquez remained in the game, though, 

Ugueto came to the plate for the third time in the game and struck out to bring Cardona to the plate with two out, two on. Cardona gave Vasquez his third strikeout of the game to end the inning.

Broncos lead 3-0.
