Titans Slug Way to Massive Win Over ValleyCats

August 24, 2024

OFFICIAL FRONTIER LEAGUE BOX SCORE


Troy, NY - The Ottawa Titans (50-37) opened a huge series with a lopsided 14-0 win over the Tri-City ValleyCats (48-38) on Friday night.


After the two clubs with playoff aspirations played to a scoreless tie through three, the Titans broke through in the fourth - as Taylor Wright's leadoff walk came around to score on a wild pitch from Arlo Marynczak (loss, 5-5) to make it 1-0.


Tyler Jandron (win, 8-5) was dominant for the Titans in his 17th start of the season - as the lefty allowed just three hits, three walks, and struck out six over seven scoreless innings for his team-leading 11th quality start of the campaign. At one point, Jandron retired seven in a row - and allowed just the six baserunners on his way to the win.


The Titans began to pour it on in the fifth - capitalizing for four runs on four hits - as the club sent nine to the plate. Brendan O'Donnell connected for his first hit with the bases loaded on the season with a two-run single before Jamey Smart lifted a sac fly, and Lamar Briggs lined a single to left - making it 5-0.


In the sixth, a wild pitch forced home another run - before Brendan O'Donnell poked another two-run base hit up the middle off Nathan Medrano to make it 8-0.


O'Donnell was not done, as the rookie continued to rake - as in the seventh, he blasted his ninth homer of the year - headlining a four-run frame to make it 12-0. 


Overall, O'Donnell went 3-for-6 with a homer, and a career-high seven RBI - the most runs produced by a single member of the offence all season.


Michael Fuhrman launched his first homer since June 1st in the ninth - belting a two-run shot for his fourth of the season to make it 14-0 before it was all said and done.


Jose Torrealba and Kyle White saved the shutout bid - combining for two scoreless innings out of the bullpen - as the Titans post their second-straight shutout and sixth of the season.


In the win, seven members of the offence posted multi-hit performances - as O'Donnell and Fuhrman recorded three-hit games.


The Ottawa Titans continue their final set away from the capital, with game two of a three-game series against the Tri-City ValleyCats on Saturday night at 6:30 p.m. from Joseph L. Bruno Stadium in Troy, New York. All the action can be heard on CKDJ 107.9 and 94,5 Unique FM and live-streamed on Flo Baseball.

OFFICIAL FRONTIER LEAGUE BOX SCORE Ottawa, ON - The Ottawa Titans (37-38) fell back under the .500 mark in an 11-3 loss to the Québec Capitales (52-24) on Friday - as the club suffered their fourth consecutive loss. Looking to do early damage, Marc-Antoine Lebreux clubbed a leadoff ground rule double to right off Titans starter Evan Grills (loss, 3-4) to kick off the game - ending up 90 feet away moments later on a wild pitch. Two batters later, Ruben Castro started the scoring with a sacrifice fly to right. Hector Sepulveda (win, 2-0) shut down any sort of momentum the Titans' offence had in mind through five and two-thirds of solid baseball. The right-hander allowed just three base runners over the first four innings, stranding a two-out walk and a Justin Fogel double in scoring position in the fourth inning. The Capitales rode the momentum from their starter to plate a leadoff Jesmuel Valentin single in the fifth inning to make it 2-0, as Anthony Quirion poked an RBI single to right. Sending nine to the plate in back-to-back innings against Grills, the Capitales poured it on with three in the sixth and four more in the seventh to put the game out of reach. Facing the Capitales for the third time in eight starts, Grills was done after six and two-thirds, allowing a season-high nine runs (eight earned) on ten hits, walking four, hitting two, and striking out two in the defeat. Taking advantage of three walks in the seventh inning, the Titans broke the scoreless bid from Sepulveda as Justin Fogel brought home Kaiden Cardoso's leadoff free pass with a sac fly to right. The Titans got to left-hander Franklin Parra in the eighth inning, connecting for two runs on three hits. With the bases loaded, AJ Wright grounded into a 5-4-3 double play, scoring a Cardoso leadoff single. Next, Fogel brought in his second of the night with an infield single, scoring Jake Sanford's double. After Brandon Marklund allowed an inherited runner to score in his third of an inning of work - right-hander Kyle Demi got the side in order in a clean eighth inning. Billy Duby surrendered a pair of runs in the ninth, going just two-thirds of an inning before Shane Gray took the hill to get the final out of the frame. Offensively, the Titans did not record their first hit until the fourth - then had to wait until the eighth for their remaining three hits. Justin Fogel went 2-for-3 with a double and two RBI, while AJ Wright and Jackie Urbaez each walked twice. Jake Sanford went 1-for-3 with a double and a walk. Kaiden Cardoso chipped in with a 1-for-2 night, also drawing a walk. The Ottawa Titans continue the homestand with the second of a three-game series against the Québec Capitales on Saturday night at 6:00 p.m. at Ottawa Stadium. The final leg of the homestand will see Florence pay a visit for the first time since the 2023 season.
