SYRACUSE SCORPIONS AT CINCINNATI ROYALS
GAME ID: 939 - SUNDAY, JUNE 25TH , 2023 - GAME LOG
  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E
Syracuse Scorpions (28-51) 3 0 0 0 0 1 2 0 0 6 11 0
Cincinnati Royals (50-29) 1 1 0 3 1 0 0 1 X 7 13 0
Royals Take Down Scorpions, 7-6
Rick Brown knocked in 3 runs to help Cincinnati beat Syracuse, 7-6. Brown produced 1 single and 1 home run. Roberto Salazar, who finished 2nd in the AC in saves with 45 in 2021, was the winner in relief. His record is now 2-2. The losing pitcher was Jason Cox. The second-place Royals have won 6 consecutive games.

Had Pat Kirchner not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and a runner on 3rd, Kirchner hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 7-6, in favor of the Royals.

"We're just going to try to build off this win," said Kirchner.
