OFFICIAL FRONTIER LEAGUE BOX SCORE
Trois-Rivières, QC - The Ottawa Titans (8-16) left a season-high 17 runners on base in a 6-3 loss to the Trois-Rivières Aigles (9-15) on Thursday.
After the Titans left the bases loaded in the first, Rodrigo Orozco started the bottom half of the first with an opposite-field solo shot off Alec Thomas (loss, 1-1) to open the scoring.
Jason Dicochea tied the game with a solo blast off Kaleb Schmidt (ND, 0-0) in the top of the fourth. Dicochea's fifth homer of the year extended his hit streak to eight-straight games.
The game would remain tied until the Aigles blew it open in the late innings. A wild pitch forced home a run in the fifth before the Aigles added three in the sixth. A bases-loaded walk to Rodrigo Orozco brought home some insurance, then Juan Kelly scored a pair with a single.
Victor Cerny's RBI double off Kenny Williams made it a 6-1 game in the seventh to put the Aigles in the driver's seat.
In the ninth, the Titans would make things interesting and load the bases against former big leaguer Jesen Therrien. Manny Garcia would bring a run home with an infield single, and Brandon Bannon would walk to make it a three-run game. With the tying run on base, Therrien got AJ Wright to ground out to end the contest.
With the loss, the Titans drop their seventh-straight series and left the bases loaded three times in the series finale.
Taylor Wright and Manny Garcia posted multi-hit performances. Jacob Talamante and Jason Dicochea each drew two walks and AJ Wright walked three times. Also, Jamey Smart extended his hitting streak to five games and on-base streak to 13 in a row.
