UT has taken the lead. White singled to lead off the fifth, followed by a strikeout. Then Cola singled White to third; White then scored on a groundout. 2-1 going to the bottom of the fifth.

2-2 going to the sixth. A leadoff double and a one-out single tied it.

Edit: Either I wasn't paying enough attention or the live stats was wrong for a minute. Either way, live stats now says it's 3-2 49ers. UT up in the sixth.

Go-ahead run scored on a passed ball.

Charlotte adds one in the sixth. 4-2 49ers with the Rockets hitting in the seventh.

Rockets have one in the 7th and are still hitting.

4-3 Charlotte at the stretch.

Charlotte with a four-run seventh. Still hitting.

8-3 after eight.

Well we have already matched last nights run total. In the top of the first Lapikas poked out a 3 run bomb folled by a Zuchowski solo shot 2 batters later. 4-0 Toledo after top 1

Defense is a little shotty right now. 4-1 Rockets after 2

Defense still not playing good. 4-3 Rockets after 3, and i am off to work now

Another error hurts the Rockets. Leadoff hitter in the fourth for the 49ers reaches second on an error, comes around to score. Charlotte still up in the fourth. Tied at 4.

4-4 going to the fifth.

Top of the sixth, tied at 4.

Rockets ahead 5-4, still hitting in the sixth. A one-out walk, followed by a double.

Top of the seventh, 5-4 Rockets.

5-4 going to the eighth.

Looks like UT dodged a bullet in the bottom of the 8th. According to live stats, the inning ended on a 8-2-5 putout. With a runner on third and one out, a fly ball to center was the second out. My guess is the runner thought about trying to score and then was thrown out trying to get back to third.

5-4 Rockets starting the ninth.
