Right-hander Parker Dunshee fired 7.1 hitless frames, allowing just one baserunner through the first seven innings. Justin Ferrell made a spot start in place of Forrest Whitley, who was scratched from his Friday assignment. Ferrell tossed two scoreless innings to begin the ballgame. In the third, Astros right-hander Chris Deven- ski allowed a two-run homer to Tyler Ramirez. Ryan Harman entered in the fourth and retired the first nine men he faced. Skye Bolt bucked the trend with a lead-off blast in the seventh for a 3-0 lead. With one on and one out in eighth, the Hounds went to their closer Kyle Finnegan. Two walks loaded the bases but Finnegan struck out Ronnie Dawson to thwart the threat. Corpus Christi’s first hit was a lead-off single by catcher Lorenzo Quintana in the ninth. Randy Cesar followed with a base hit through the right side. Chas McCormick later put the Hooks on the scoreboard by placing an RBI infield single behind second base. John Gorman answered by striking out Stephen Wrenn with the bases full to record the save.

RHP Jason Hirsh is the club leader with 165, achieved during his 2005 Texas League Pitcher of the Year campaign. CLOSE CALL: With 3 outs to spare last night, the Hooks avoided being no-hit for the first time since 2014. Chas McCormick mustered an RBI infield single 2 away in the 9th, saving Corpus Christi from being blanked in back-to-back games. The Hooks’ 9th-inning marker snapped a stretch of 21 consecutive innings without a run. CC has been held to just 3 hits in each of the last 2 nights, which is a season-low.

In the last 2 games vs. Midland, Corpus Christi struck out 28 Hounds and issued 3 walks in 18 innings. The Hooks have struck out 1,232 this season, which leads Double-A and stands as the Texas League record. San Antonio penned 1,186 strikeouts last season to set the circuit standard. The previous Hooks record for strikeouts in a season is 1,132, notched in 2016. Quad Cities, the Astros’ Midwest League affiliate, currently leads Minor League Baseball with 1,398 strikeouts.
