OFFICIAL FRONTIER LEAGUE BOX SCORE


Trois-Rivières, QC - Trailing 5-3 after five, the Ottawa Titans (8-15) used a two-run sixth and five-run ninth to defeat the Trois-Rivières Aigles (8-15) by a score of 10-6 on Wednesday.


The Titans got off to a hot start getting the first two aboard in the first inning against Ray Weber (ND, 0-3), as Jamey Smart launched a three-run blast to right. Smart's second homer of the year gave the Titans an early 3-0 lead.


Nate Scantlin began the bottom half of the first against Damon Casetta-Stubbs (ND, 0-2) with a double as former Titan Rodrigo Orozco stepped up and blasted a two-run shot to cut the deficit to one.


Following an error to begin the third, the Aigles pulled in front following a pair of sacrifice flies from LP Pelletier and Steve Brown.


With the bases loaded in the fifth, Victor Cerny's grounder back to the mound went off the mitt of Casetta-Stubbs and rolled away, allowing a run to score. The right-hander bounced back to limit the damage, getting the Titans out of the inning only trailing by a pair.


The comeback began with two runs in the top of the sixth as the Titans chased Weber from the game. Jason Dicochea made it a one-run game with an RBI single before Manny Garcia tied the game with a sacrifice fly.


Chris Burica (win, 1-1) kept the game tied with three shutout innings out of the bullpen. The southpaw only needed 22 pitches to face the minimum in the late innings.


In a 5-5 tie entering the ninth, the Titans sent ten to the dish and scored five times on four hits against Frankie Giuliano (loss, 0-1) and Jordan Shulefand to re-take the lead. Sicnarf Loopstok, Jamey Smart, Taylor Wright, and Manny Garcia all contributed with RBI hits to help guide the Titans to victory.


In the win, Taylor Wright and Jamey Smart each went 3-for-4, while Sicnarf Loopstok and Jake Gitter posted multi-hit performances.
