EVERETT — Bryan Woo struck out 11 over six dominant innings, but the Everett AquaSox bullpen could not hold a slim ninth-inning lead in a 3-1 loss to the Vancouver Canadians on Friday night at Funko Field.
Woo allowed no runs on just two hits in his stellar performance. The 22-year-old right-hander lowered his ERA to 0.89 in four starts with the AquaSox, which suffered their sixth straight loss and 13th in their past 15 games.
Everett carried a 1-0 lead into the ninth inning thanks to an RBI groundout by Robert Perez Jr. that scored Justin Lavey in the bottom of the third.
Alex De Jesus led off the ninth with a single and Leo Jimenez followed with an RBI double as the Canadians pulled even at 1-1. PK Morris doubled to score Jimenez to give Vancouver a 2-1 lead. Damiano Palmegiana added an RBI single in the inning push the Canadians’ lead to 3-1.
Everett (50-61) mounted a small rally in the ninth on a single by James Parker and Dariel Gomez was hit by a pitch. But Alberto Rodriguez flew out to center to end the threat and the game.
Wallace started for Vancouver (58-50) and allowed one run in two hits in six innings while striking out seven.
