Eulogio "Frankie" De La Cruz tossed seven innings, only allowing an unearned run, as the Isotopes defeated the Colorado Springs Sky Sox (AAA Rockies) 6-1 in the opener of a series in Colorado Springs.
Jai Miller doubled and scored on John Gall's single in the 1st inning as Albuquerque quickly led in the game.
In the 2nd inning, Dante Brinkley was hit by a pitch and scored on Chris Barnwell's double. De La Cruz sacrifice bunted to move Barnwell to third base and Miller singled to drive in Barnwell. Sky Sox starter Josh Towers wildly threw the ball away on a pickoff attempt and Miller raced around the bases to score on the error to give Albuquerque a 4-0 lead.
Tagg Bozied singled and scored on Brinkley's double in the third inning to extend the lead to 5-0.
De La Cruz's only blemish on the scoreboard came in the 6th inning. Edwin Bellorin reached on a two base error and scored on Joe Koshansky's single.

MARLIN PROSPECTS IN TODAY'S GAME (With Season Stats):

'TOPES NOTES: P Daniel Barone was placed on the Disabled List with a strained back and taking his place on the roster is OF George Lombard. Lombard is a major league veteran who recently signed a minor league deal with the Marlins. Lombard was drafted by the Atlanta Braves in the 2nd round of the 1994 draft and has played with four MLB clubs, last with the Washington Nationals in 2006. Lombard began 2008 with the Las Vegas 51s (AAA Dodgers) and hit .163 with 1 homer and 4 RBI in 13 games before he was released. . . . Eulogio "Frankie" De La Cruz has won his last five pitching decisions and has a 15 inning streak without having given up an earned run. Having won both starts for this past week with 15 strikeouts in 14 innings while not allowing an earned run certainly puts De La Cruz in solid contention to win the PCL Pitcher of the Week award. . . . Andrew Beattie hit safely to extend his hitting streak to 12 games, the longest by an Isotope in 2008. . . . Jai Miller was a homer shy of hitting for the cycle. . . . The series continues on Sunday afternoon. Probables are LHP Chris Seddon (2-1, 4.50 for the Isotopes and LHP Franklin Morales (0-0, 0.00) for the Sky Sox.

The Salt Lake Bees' (AAA Angels) Kasey Olenberger held the Isotopes hitless through 5 2/3 innings and allowed two runs in 7 2/3 innings as the Bees defeated the Isotopes 4-2 in the series finale at Franklin Covey Field in Salt Lake City on Friday evening.
In the 3rd inning, Ryan Budde tripled and scored on Gary Patchett's groundout as the Bees snapped the scoreless tie.
The rest of the runs in the contest came via the longball. In the 4th inning, Adam Pavkovich solo homered to extend Salt Lake's lead to 2-0.
Chris Barnwell singled with two outs in the 6th inning to break up the perfect game/no-hitter.
In the bottom of the 6th inning, Kendry Morales doubled and scored on Matthew Brown's homer as the Bees led 4-0.

'TOPES NOTES: Albuquerque and Salt Lake say bye-bye to each other in 2008 with the series split. 16,140 fans attended in Salt Lake City for a per-game average of 4,035. All-time, Salt Lake holds a 12-11 series advantage. . . . Andrew Beattie extended his hitting streak to 11 games with tonight's homer. Beattie has hit in 11 straight games twice in 2008. . . . If you have Dean Treanor on your Isotopes ejection fantasy league team, you now lead your fantasy league! Treanor earned his first (and the team's first) ejection of the season in the 9th inning when Home Plate umpire Jacob Uhlenhopp tossed him from the game. . . . Albuquerque concludes the roadtrip with four games against Pacific Conference opponent Colorado Springs Sky Sox (AAA Rockies). This once great divisional rivalry dimished in 2005 with PCL realignment moving the Sky Sox to the Pacific Conference and the two clubs meeting just four times a year rather than the 16 divisional meetings. Probables in the opener are Eulogio "Frankie" De La Cruz (4-1, 6.75) for the Isotopes and RHP Josh Towers (3-2, 6.16) for the Sky Sox. De La Cruz has been red hot since deciding to go by "Frankie", winning his last four pitching decisions.
