The Garden City Wind (11-34) fell to the Las Vegas Train Robbers (20-23) in dramatic fashion Sunday evening with a final score of 7-6.


Lundgren also broke up Las Vegas starter Josh Ganus’s no-hitter with a solo homer to right center to start the sixth. His bat remained hot in the seventh inning as he hit a three-run double into center to take a 4-3 lead.


An exciting seventh continued with a double by Julio Rodriguez to bring Lundgren home. Garden City was up 5-3 going into the eight, but Las Vegas tied it up with two runs.


Chris Cruz took the lead back in the bottom of the eighth to put the Wind up 6-5.


Ganus was perfect through 4.2 innings before allowing his first baserunner. Ganus walked the newest member of the Wind, Rafael Ramirez, though he was picked off at first before he could take advantage of the free base.


Jordan Caillouet was responsible for the first five runs for the Train Robbers. He hit an RBI single to bring home the first run. In his next two at-bats, Caillouet sent the ball over the left field wall for two solo home runs.


After the Wind took the 5-3 lead, Caillouet batted in yet another run with an RBI single up the middle. The game was tied up after a single by RJ Rayborn, who scored Caillouet.


When they did manage to get on base, Garden City struggled to capitalize. In addition to Ramirez’s pickoff, Albert Gonzalez was caught stealing in the seventh. The Wind recorded their first stolen base in the eighth as Shea Bell swiped second.


Tyler Lundgren had a solid night going three-for-four.


Chip White finished his outing on the mound after three runs and seven hits in six innings. White issued two strikeouts and two walks.


Brandon Hudson was the first to come in from the bullpen. He had a quick inning on the mound, giving up just one hit.


Matt Eshleman took over for Hudson to begin the eighth. He walked two batters before Ethan Rosebeck entered the game. Eshleman and Rosebeck were both charged with a run in the inning.


Rosebeck (1-3) returned in the ninth, but gave up two more runs to take the loss. He allowed three total runs and five walks.


The Wind hit the road for seven games in Santa Fe against the Fuego and two in Trinidad, Colo., against the Triggers.

After a devastating loss Wednesday night, the Garden City Wind (10-32) battled for a well-deserved 3-1 victory over the Las Vegas Train Robbers (18-22) Thursday evening at Clint Lightner Stadium. The win snapped a nine-game losing streak for the Wind.

The Garden City Wind (9-32) allowed the Las Vegas Train Robbers (18-21) to get an early lead for the second night in a row as they fell 9-32 in Wednesday night’s matchup.


Garden City had a good night with 16 hits, but it was no match for the Train Robbers. The Wind’s pitching staff struggled throughout the game, hitting nine batters and allowing a combined 21 hits.


The Wind trailed 0-5 in the second before they put a run on the board coming from a pair of walks followed by singles from Julio Rodriguez and Edgar Munoz. Las Vegas scored two in the first as two batters were walked in by Craig Jaquez. Three more runs came in the second for the Train Robbers.


Increasing the lead 1-15 in the third, Las Vegas pitcher Izaiah Guerrero started the damage with a grand slam just after Chip White took the mound for the Wind. The Train Robbers continued to dominate as they scored five more runs before recording an out and tacked on another before the inning ended.


Garden City earned one run back with an RBI single by Albert Gonzalez. They continued to chip away at the monstrous deficit, adding a run in the fourth and one in the fifth. White recorded his first professional RBI with a single to center in the fifth.


The Train Robbers hit a two-out, two-run home run in the top of the sixth, but the Wind retaliated with a three-run blast to center by Chris Cruz after Dylin Brooks reached by taking a hit and Shea Bell singled to center.


The bottom of the sixth continued with a single by Ariel Adut. Gabe Cook stepped into the batter’s box as a pinch hitter and scored Adut with a single of his own.


Eight more Las Vegas runs were charged to Ryan Blinderman in the seventh. Blinderman hit four batters in his outing. He was replaced by Matt Eshleman, who hit his first batter, but ended the inning with a strikeout. Eshleman was responsible for one run. After the seventh, the score was 27-8.


Jaquez (3-1) recorded his first loss of the season, giving up eight runs on five hits and five walks with two strikeouts in two innings.


Pitching three innings, White gave up eight runs on eight hits with three walks and one strikeout.


Position players Munoz and Bell made appearances on the mound late in the game.

The Garden City Wind (9-31) returned to Clint Lightner Stadium Tuesday evening after a tough stretch on the road, dropping seven of the eight games. The Wind lost their eighth straight game as they fell to the Las Vegas Train Robbers (17-21) 6-12.


The Wind’s bats came to life in the third inning as they scored five runs before recording an out.   They started the inning with three straight singles by Ariel Adut, Edgar Munoz and Rodney Polonia. Garden City pulled off the double steal as Polonia took off for second and Munoz ran for home plate.


With Polonia and Shea Bell on base, Pecos League All-Star Cody Ellis shot the ball over the right field wall, managing to keep left of the foul pole. The blast helped put Garden City within three runs of Las Vegas for a 5-8 score, but they could not pull off the comeback in the end.


Juilo Rodriguez had a great outing in his Wind debut. He hit a double that bounced off the wall in left center in the third and an RBI single in the fifth.


Garden City’s pitching staff gave up eight runs in the first two innings. Casey Grimmett (0-2) started on the mound for the Wind and struggled as he gave up four runs on four hits. Ethan Rosebeck started the second inning in place of Grimmett.


Like Grimmett, Rosebeck gave up four runs and four hits in a single inning. Rosebeck finished his outing with five runs and nine hits. He dished out four strikeouts and one walk and committed one error in five innings.


Newly acquired Matt Eshleman took the mound to begin the seventh. He struck out the first two batters he faced, but walked the next four as he could not find his placement against right handed batters.


Ryan Blinderman came in with the bases loaded and managed to get out of a tough situation. He retired his first batter as John Galinoudis grounded out to Bell.


Another new face to the Wind, Danny Barns, closed the game after Brandon Hudson tossed a scoreless eighth inning. Barns allowed two runs on one hit, two walks and one strikeout.


Kyer Vega (2-1) picked up the win for the Train Robbers. Vega allowed just one run on four hits with two strikeouts and one walk.


The teams will return to Clint Lightner Stadium at 6:30 on Wednesday for game two of the series.

The tough Santa Fe Fuego (8-2) showed no mercy against the Garden City Wind (2-12) as they picked up their second win of the seven-game series. The final score of Wednesday's game was 8-11.

 

Ethan Rosebeck started the game on the mound with a lead-off walk to Eddie Grimaldo, who was quickly caught stealing after a missle from Wind catcher Tyler Lundgren. Garden City got two more quick outs to end the inning.

 

Garden City kept Santa Fe third baseman Ruben Rivera busy in the bottom of the first, as Shea Bell, Gabe Cook, and Larry Rodriguez all grounded out to third. 

 

The Fuego put a pair of runs on the board in the top of the second with another lead-off walk and an error before Rivera doubled down the left field line and a single up the right side by Matthew Pardo. 

 

Brandon Cooksey started the bottom of the second with a laser to right field, recording his fourth home run of the season. Cody Ellis, Lundgren, and Rosebeck kept the bats alive with three consecutive singles. With the bases loaded, Jacob Gonzalez took an RBI hit by pitch to tie the game. The Wind took a 3-2 lead with a sacrifice fly by Bell. 

 

Santa Fe quickly regained the lead after yet another lead-off walk and a two-run home run to right field by Chevas Numata in the top of the third.

 

Their lead was extended in the top of the fourth, 8-2, with most of the damage done with two outs. The half-inning consisted of four singles, a double, and a home run from the Fuego. The home run was Numata's second two-run homer of the game.

 

Taylor Simpson took charge on the mound for the Wind in the fifth, relieving Rosebeck. Simpson tossed an efficient inning with a rare popup to the mound, which he opted to catch himself. He gave up a single to right center, but no harm was done as Fuego pitcher Kahana Neal grounded out into a double play to end the inning.

 

Cooksey's bat remained hot in the bottom of the fifth with an RBI single to left field, scoring Rodriguez and keeping the Wind within four runs of the Fuego.

 

The Fuego continued to prove dominant in the sixth, adding another pair of runs with a third two-run home run of the game, this time from shortstop Eddie Newton.

 

Garden City added two more runs in the seventh to bring the score to 6-10. Cook started the inning with a single to left field and advanced to third on a Fuego error with Rodriguez at bat. Cook managed to score on a wild pitch from Fuego relief pitcher Briston Clingaman. Rodriguez followed suit and crossed home after a sacrifice fly to left by James Floyd.

 

Santa Fe added its 11th and final run of the night in the eighth.

 

Refusing to give up, the Wind scored two more runs in the eighth against reliever Ryan Harper. Pinch hitter Benly Ramos was the first to cross the plate after reaching with a hit by pitch. Gonzalez put the ball in play and ended up with a double as right fielder David Brandt lost the ball in the lights.

 

Ramos scored on Bell's unassisted out to the first baseman Numata shortly before Gonzalez scored on a wild pitch. With only one out, Cook stepped up and hit his third single of the night, putting on a solid performance. He was forced out, however, on a fielder's choice to Rodriguez for the second time of the night. 

 

Rodriguez stole second and third, recording a notable three stolen bases on the night. 

 

Despite numerous comeback attempts, the Wind was unable to defeat the Fuego, dropping the second game of the series 8-11.

 

Also making appearances on the mound for the Wind were Jacob Terry and Chip White, and Ryan Blinderman.

 

Rosebeck ended his outing with eight runs (one unearned), 10 hits, two strikeouts, and three walks in four innings pitched. He picked up the loss in his first start of the season.

 

Kahana Neal (2-0) picked up his second win in five innings pitched, giving up four runs, eight hits, and one walk. Neal also recorded three strikeouts. 

 

The series continues at Clint Lightner Stadium on Thursday evening with the first pitch being thrown at 6:30.
