EVERETT — Eric Filia had a walk-off two-run double, as the Everett AquaSox beat the Spokane Indians 6-5 on Saturday.

Donnie Walton drew a leadoff walk for the AquaSox in the bottom of the ninth, and advanced to second when Bryson Brigman beat out bunt.

After a wild pitch moved both runners up a base, Filia’s double to right-center field won it for the Sox.

The Indians took a 5-4 lead in the top of the seventh when Luis Terrero hit an RBI single, driving in Blaine Prescott as part of a three-run inning.

Reliever Michael Koval (2-2) went one scoreless inning, striking out two to get the win.

John Werner (0-1) didn’t record an out and allowed two runs.

Prescott doubled and singled twice, scoring a couple of runs while also driving home two for the Indians.

With the win, Everett improved to 7-3 against Spokane this season.
