OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) -- Jake Peter hit a grand slam in the third inning, leading the Oklahoma City Dodgers to a 9-8 win over the San Antonio Missions on Saturday.
The grand slam by Peter gave the Dodgers a 7-4 lead and capped a seven-run inning for Okla. City. Earlier in the inning, Connor Joe hit a two-run home run and Kyle Garlick hit an RBI triple.
The Dodgers later tacked on two runs in the fifth when Garlick hit a solo home run and Zach Reks scored on a groundout to secure the victory.
San Antonio saw its comeback attempt come up short after Travis Shaw hit a solo home run in the seventh inning and Blake Allemand hit a two-run home run in the ninth to cut the Okla. City lead to 9-8.
Luis Vasquez (1-0) got the win in relief while San Antonio starter Bubba Derby (4-6) took the loss in the Pacific Coast League game.
Shaw homered twice and singled, driving home three runs and scoring a couple for the Missions. Lucas Erceg reached base three times.
