Wilmy Sanchez absorbed the loss despite turning in a terrific play in the 10th inning. With runners at the corners and one away, Sanchez struck out cleanup-hitter Chris Newell, but the third strike bounced to the backstop. Zach Ehrhard raced from third trying to score the winning run. Sanchez charged the plate, caught the wild carom and then dove to tag out Ehrhard, extending the game.
