Slugfest Goes To Midland 15-12

Scoring eight unanswered runs, the Springfield Cardinals looked to be on the verge of a dramatic comeback.
Joe Kelly got roughed up in his Double-A debut, and two relievers weren’t much better Sunday night as the Springfield Cardinals lost 15-12 to the Midland RockHounds despite one of their more inspired rallies at Hammons Field.
Scoring eight unanswered runs, the Springfield Cardinals looked to be on the verge of a dramatic comeback.

Those hopes took a huge hit one half inning later. Back-to-back home runs in the eighth, one of which was a grand slam, quickly extinguished any chance for a Cardinal win, and Springfield fell to Midland 15-12.
