Pilots Bridle Z's, 3-2
|
Kevin Gibbons pitched well enough to win, but it was not to be. The Ann Arbor Z's, despite Gibbons's fine outing, dropped a 3-2 decision to the Denver Pilots at Pilots Ballpark. The win was credited to 29-year old left-handed pitcher Luis Diaz in relief. His record improves to 2-3. Kevin Gibbons took the loss. Billy Merner was credited with the save for Denver, his 16th of the season.
The Z's had been locked in a 2-2 tie with the Pilots going into the bottom of the sixth inning. That changed quickly when the 28-year old shortstop Robby Finkler came to the plate. Finkler hit a solo home run on a 0-1 fastball from Ann Arbor hurler Kevin Gibbons. It was Finkler's 10th home run of the year.
"It'd be nice to win by four or five runs," Finkler said, "instead of holding our breath the whole game."
Denver currently is in 5th place in the Stripes Conference West Division at 33-32.
