Javier Brito's Walk-Off Bomb Lifts Pensacola In 11 Innings

Pensacola 3, El Paso 2 (11 innings)
With the score tied, 2-2, in the bottom of the 11th inning, Pensacola 1B Javier Brito picked the right time for his only hit of the game. With two outs and the count full, Brito belted a solo home run to give the Pelicans a 3-2 walk-off win over El Paso. Pensacola starting pitcher Jared Gothreaux took the tough luck no decision. He allowed two runs on 11 hits and struck out five without issuing a walk in 10 innings. Instead it was Pelicans reliever Austin Chambliss that earned the win, his second, after tossing a scoreless 11th inning.
