In the Outlaws' game against the Flyers tonight, both teams were scoreless until Garry Templeton II’s grand slam in the sixth inning that stunned the home crowd about 10 minutes ago. If it were any other hitter in the Flyer lineup, it wouldn't quite as pulsating for Orange County — Templeton, after all, was homerless coming in, was 0-for-8 with the bases loaded this season and hitting .241 with runners in scoring position.

Until the surprise blast, Jake McKinley had dodged damage during a fine pitcher's duel despite putting five runners on base while OC's Nate Holguin simply overcame Daniel Nava. Nava singled to lead off the second inning and doubled with two outs in the third — the Outlaws’ only two real hits at that point considering Steve Boggs was gunned down at second base trying to extend a single in Chico’s first at-bat.

Nava in right field also was a major player in the defensive duel, robbing Johnny Coit of a potential two-out, bases-loaded triple in the first inning by leaping to catch a fly at full extension against the wall before later on sliding to snag an Aaron Davis line-drive with a runner at second base and one out.
