Gibson was thrown out at first, but left fielder Mike Sanchez, who earlier reached base on a fielder's choice, scored to make it a 4-0 game.

With Dennison at the plate, a wild pitch and passed ball moved Gibson to third and he scored on a tough play at short as the fielder tried to catch the ball going away and dropped it.
