The lone run of the game came on a pair of doubles in the top of the second. In the first at-bat of the inning, Charlton Jimmerson doubled to left field, and two at-bats later Roberto Lopez doubled to right field to bring him home.

The Drillers will travel to Springdale, Arkansas to take start a four-game series with the Northwest Arkansas Naturals at 7 p.m. Tuesday at Arvest Ballpark.
