Garcia Struggles on the Mound
Starting pitcher Ryan Garcia (L, 0-1) lasted 2 innings, allowing 4 hits, 5 runs, 4 walks, and 2 home runs. The early offensive surge by Sugar Land set the tone, making it difficult for Round Rock to mount a comeback.
Hauver, Barnhart, and Carter Lead Offense
The Express managed 8 hits, with Trevor Hauver, Tucker Barnhart, and Evan Carter each contributing 2 hits. Carter stood out, recording a single and a triple, but Round Rock couldn’t string together enough offense to close the gap against the Space Cowboys.
