Surrey, B.C. native Justin Atkinson flips the ball to Brosnahan at first base for the out.

Dickie Thon Jr. tries to square one up but he would ground out to short.

Jorge Vega-Rosado can't beat out this throw to first but he would single later in the game.

Dickie Thon Jr. jumps out of the way of Spokane's Janluis Castro to turn a 4-6-3 double play with second baseman Jorge Vega-Rosado.

Daniel Klein is picked off at second base after Justin Atkinson lined out to center field for an inning-ending double play. Spokane shortstop Alberto Triunfel makes the stretch for the out.
