The Winnipeg Goldeyes (10-12) avoided a series sweep with a 4-3 victory over the Sioux City Explorers at Blue Cross Park Sunday afternoon.
\n\u00a0
\nAfter the first three innings were scoreless, Winnipeg took a 1-0 lead in the fourth when right fielder\u00a0Max Murphy\u00a0reached on a fielding error with two out, allowing centre fielder\u00a0Noah Marcelo\u00a0to come home.
\n\u00a0
\nThe Goldeyes added two more in the fifth. Shortstop\u00a0Ray-Patrick Didder\u00a0tripled to centre field, driving in first baseman\u00a0Roby Enr\u00edquez. Didder then scored on catcher\u00a0Kevin Garc\u00eda\u2019s sacrifice fly to centre, making it 3-0.
\n\u00a0
\nIn the sixth, Murphy blooped a single to right field that brought second baseman\u00a0Keshawn Lynch\u00a0in, giving Winnipeg a four-run cushion.
\n\u00a0
\nSioux City (10-13) first baseman Alberto Osuna led off the seventh inning with a home run to left, and shortstop Elliot Good later singled home designated hitter Zane Denton to cut the Goldeyes\u2019 lead to 4-2.

\nIn the top of the ninth, Good crossed the plate on centre fielder Austin Davis\u2019 ground out to third base as the Explorers pulled to within one, with the tying run at second base and two out. However, the next batter, third baseman Zac Vooletich, lined out to end the ballgame.
\n\u00a0
\nMitchell Lambson\u00a0(W, 2-3) went 6 and 2\/3 innings for the Goldeyes, allowing two runs on seven hits. He struck out a pair and walked three.\u00a0Quinn Waterhouse\u00a0and\u00a0Derrick Cherry\u00a0(S, 4) appeared in relief.
\n\u00a0
\nJosh Landry (L, 0-3) pitched 5 and 1\/3 innings for Sioux City, allowing four runs \u2013 three earned \u2013 on seven hits. He walked one and struck out two.
\n\u00a0
\nWinnipeg announced two roster moves Sunday. Infielder\/outfielder\u00a0Adam Hall\u00a0was placed on the Injured List, retroactive to June 3. Hall was removed from the June 2 game vs. Sioux Falls after being injured. Secondly, right-handed relief pitcher\u00a0Dominic Hambley\u00a0was acquired from the Kansas City Monarchs in exchange for a player to be named later. The Victoria, British Columbia native appeared in six games with Kansas City this season, posting an 0-1 record with a 6.75 earned run average. The 23-year-old was chosen by the Chicago Cubs in the 18th round of the 2021 Major League Baseball June Amateur Draft out of Belmont High School in Victoria.
\n\u00a0
\nThe Goldeyes continue their season-long, 10-game homestand with three games against the Cleburne Railroaders beginning Tuesday at 6:30 p.m. Right-hander\u00a0Arij Fransen\u00a0(0-1, 6.07 ERA) is expected to start for Winnipeg, with Cleburne expected to go with lefty Luke Short (0-4, 5.79 ERA).
\n\u00a0
\nTuesday is Country Night and $2 Tuesday, Wednesday is School Patrol Appreciation Night, and Thursday is the always popular Shirt Off Our Backs Night, where a lucky fan will win the jersey right off a Goldeyes player\u2019s back after every inning.
