For the second consecutive game, the Tides’ bullpen couldn’t hold the line, as a four-run comeback in the ninth went to waste when Wandisson Charles conceded a run in the tenth inning on a groundout, walk and sac fly and got stuck with the loss.
Charles wasn’t the weakest link, however: the veteran Julio Teheran doesn’t look quite ready for MLB action, to judge from this one. Teheran allowed seven runs (all earned) on nine hits, including two homers, and four walks. Brandon Young came in for the sixth and allowed three earned runs himself.
It was a bummer because Tides hitters had managed to jump out to a 6-0 lead with some loud thumps in the first and second innings.
