WALK-OFF,
Continued from page A18
In the top of the eighth, a one-out sin-
gle by Logan, followed by a walk from
Matt Lokken, put the Senators in business
and forced Embree to replace Rosebeck on
the hill with Nate Hunter.
After giving up an infi eld single,
Hunter retired the next two hitters to get
out of the bases loaded jam.
“Whenever it's messy out there, I have
a lot of confi dence in Nate,” Embree said.
After struggling to make contact on
Vazquez, the Mavericks fi nally broke
through in the bottom of the ninth.
“We just got more at-bats and got more
guys to see him. He threw a lot of fastballs,
and you can time a jet eventually,” Embree
said. “Fortunately we had the right part of
our order up.”
Holliday got the inning started by lac-
ing a fastball into center fi eld for a hit.
After Vazquez's 16th punch-out of the
night, Markantonatos stepped to the plate
with an opportunity to win the game with
BUSINESS
AND
one swing.
After looking at a ball and a strike,
Markantonatos tattooed a 1-1 curveball
deep into the night sky. Once they saw
the ball go over the fence, the Mavericks
bench celebrated in a frenzy.
“He was throwing me fastballs all game,
but I like the off -speed stuff . So when he
threw one low, right in my power zone, I
just drove it over,” Markantonatos said.
Alan Vasquez had 16 strikeouts before
giving up a walk-off home run.
