Perez Stars in 12-4 Missions Win
Montgomery beat Sikeston in a rain-soaked ballgame.

The Montgomery Missions saddled the Sikeston Shamrocks with a loss at Shamrocks Park. The final score was 12-4. Javy Perez was 3 for 5, including 1 single and 2 home runs. The Montgomery left fielder scored 3 runs and drove in 7. Willie Gonzales came out of the bullpen to earn the win. The left-hander allowed 3 runs on 9 hits in 5.2 innings. His record now stands at 1-0.

Montgomery used a well-timed hit by Bill Matthews to capture the win. The left fielder socked a 2-run double in the top of the first inning to put the Missions ahead, 3-0. Though it was his only hit in 2 at-bats, it was important.

"It's always fun to score a lot of runs," said Perez.

The loss drops Sikeston to 1-2.
