\nThe RailCats (4-7) opened the scoring in the bottom of the first inning, as Korry Howell came in to score on an Elvis Peralta sacrifice fly.<\/p>\n

Jiandido Tromp\u00a0knotted things up 1-1 in the top of the second inning on an RBI double down the left field line, scoring\u00a0Adam Hall\u00a0from first base.

\nGary SouthShore jumped back in front in the bottom of the fifth inning on a single from Howell that deflected off Goldeyes pitcher\u00a0Landen Bourassa\u2019s\u00a0glove and into right field, scoring Olivier Basabe from third to make it 2-1.

\nDespite threatening in nearly every inning, Winnipeg was unable to plate a second run, as the 2-1 score held for the remainder of the contest.

\nBourassa (L, 0-3) had an outstanding night but took the tough-luck loss for the Goldeyes. He allowed two runs (both unearned) on just five hits while striking out 10. He faced just four batters over the minimum and threw 71 strikes on 96 pitches and did not walk a batter.

\n\u00a0

\nDeyni Olivero (W, 1-2) was on the winning end of the pitchers’ duel after throwing six innings of one-run ball, allowing just four hits and striking out one.

\n\u00a0

\nJacob Coats picked up his first save of the season, coming on in the eighth inning, and did not surrender a hit.

\n\u00a0

\nThe three-game series will conclude in Gary Thursday at 6:45 p.m. when Goldeyes lefty\u00a0Mitchell Lambson\u00a0(1-1, 8.68 ERA) takes on right-hander Peyton Long (1-1, 3.00).

\nThe Goldeyes return home to Blue Cross Park Monday, June 1, to begin a season-long 10-game homestand with the first of four against the Sioux Falls Canaries.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"In a tightly contested pitching battle, the Winnipeg Goldeyes (5-6) had their four-game winning streak snapped by the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":699431,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[194296],"tags":[49,48,22073],"class_list":["post-699430","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-winnipeg","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-winnipeg"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/699430","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=699430"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/699430\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/699431"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=699430"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=699430"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=699430"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
