Shortstop Kevin Brown The name Kevin Brown can refer to several different people, including the following:
Nicholas came around to score after reaching on a one-out single to right. He stole second, took third on a single to right by Teggart and scored on a double-steal attempt during which Teggart was thrown out at second. Henningson scored from first on a double by McKenna after reaching base with a two-out walk. Algonquin added another run in the second to chase Lewis. Dan Solis started things off with a leadoff single to right, took second on a wild pitch and stole third. After Hesek walked to put runners on the corners, Brown came through with a sacrifice fly to left to bring in Solis and end Lewis' day. Matt Ward relieved Lewis, inducing back-to-back flyouts to center field to end the threat. Ward didn't get through the third inning, however, as the first four batters he faced reached base, prompting Manguso to bring in Barry Fitzgibbon. Teggart reached on an infield error to start the inning, stole second, took third on a passed ball and scored on a single to right by Henningson, who took second on a passed ball and scored on McKenna's single up the middle. Zach Siska brought McKenna home with a double down the left field line to end Ward's day. Fitzgibbon struck out the first two batters he faced and, after issuing a free pass to Brown, fanned Reddington to end the rally.
