Desperados Earn Win with Late Rally
J.R. Mitchell was superb against San Francisco. The right-hander, who finished 5th in the NC in ERA with 2.52 in 2015, had a cutter that was virtually unhittable at times. The result was a Desperados victory. The score was 4-3. The triumph makes Austin 10-8, as the team begins another long trek toward the playoffs in 2024.

Austin got a knockout punch from Jim Sykora. The first baseman hammered a solo home run in the bottom of the ninth inning to win the game. It might've been his only hit, but it decided the outcome.

"This stadium was a-rockin'," said Mitchell.
