The Everett AquaSox snapped a five-game losing streak with an 11-1 win against the Vancouver Canadians at Nat Bailey Stadium on Friday.
Everett starter Colton Shaw allowed two hits and two walks across six scoreless innings, outfielder Carlos Jimenez went 4-for-4 with two RBI and outfielder Jonny Farmelo (2-for-5) drove in three runs to lead the effort.
The AquaSox (30-31) opened the scoring with an RBI double from catcher Josh Caron in the third inning, and Shaw allowed just two Vancouver batters to reach base through the first three frames.
Canadians starter Holden Wilkerson walked three straight batters to load the bases with one out in the top of the fourth, and Everett picked up two more runs when infielder Carter Dorighi hit into a fielder’s choice and outfielder Curtis Washington Jr. hit a sacrifice fly to make it 3-0.
Jimenez increased the lead to 5-0 with a two-run double in the fifth, and infielder Austin St. Laurent drove in another run in the next at-bat with a sacrifice fly. Shaw retired all six batters he faced between the fifth and sixth innings, finishing his day with three strikeouts.
Farmelo crushed his eighth home run of the season to lead off the top of the sixth and push the lead to 7-0, and Vancouver (26-35) spoiled the shutout with an RBI groundout from outfielder J.R. Freethy after AquaSox reliever Reid Easterly took over on the mound. Easterly hit the first batter he faced with a pitch, then allowed a single to infielder Tucker Toman to set Freethy up with runners on the corners.
Everett shortstop Felnin Celesten hit a solo shot of his own to make it 8-1 in the eighth inning, and the AquaSox tacked on three more runs in the ninth with an RBI single from Dorighi and a two-run triple from Farmelo.
Lucas Kelly took over the mound in the ninth for Easterly, who allowed one hit, no walks and the lone run across two innings of work, and retired the side with two strikeouts after walking the first batter he faced.
The AquaSox will face the Canadians again on Saturday at 1:05 p.m. PT.
