Minors: Quiroz slam caps El Paso’s 10-run, game-winning rally

It was not unusual to see the longball carry Triple-A El Paso to another win Friday night. A 10-spot in the bottom of the ninth was.

Esteban Quiroz capped an inspiring, 10-run rally with a pinch-hit, walk-off grand slam in the Chihuahuas’ 15-12 win over visiting Round Rock.

Michael Gettys (.783 OPS), Seth Mejias-Brean (.834 OPS), Jason Vosler (.895 OPS), Boog Powell (.874 OPS) and Travis Jankowski (.756 OPS) also singled in runs before Quiroz (.907 OPS) came off the bench to hit his 19th homer.
