Low-A
Jupiter Hammerheads 4, Fort Myers Mighty Mussels 3
The Sharks at Miami’s Low-A level only managed to collect three hits in their midday victory against Fort Myers at a closed-to-the-public Roger Dean Chevrolet Stadium.
Despite the dearth of offensive pop, Chris Mokma pitched a Quality Start for no decision. He got 59-of-94 pitches over the plate, allowing two runs on five hits and walk over six innings. Mokma whiffed three. Reliever Joey Steele pitched a perfect seventh, and Eli Villalobos (1-0, 2.00) struck out three over two innings.
Mokma allowed the pair of runs in the fourth inning on a Yunior Severino triple, and the Hammerheads couldn’t get on the board against Mussels starter Louie Varland. The 23-year-old left-hander struck out 11 and allowed only two hits and two walks.
Jupiter finally got on the board in the seventh, when Osiris Johnson crossed the plate on a wild pitch. In the top of the ninth, a fielding error by 3B Federico Polanco allowed Fort Myers to score a third run for a 3-1 lead going into the last of the inning.
Mussels reliever Bradley Hanner opened the frame by walking Victor Mesa Jr., Cameron Barstad, and Polanco. Johnson followed with a two-run single, and Nasim Nuñez drew a bases-loaded walk-off walk. After the contest, both teams sit at 17-15. The Hammerheads sit in second, two games behind the Low-A Southeast East Division leading St. Lucie Mets.
Aside from Johnson’s hit, only Nuñez and Polanco collected base hits in the game, all three singles. Today’s game, starring Hammerheads starter Dax Fulton (1-0, 5.40), will kick off at 6:30 PM.
