SOUTH BEND – Tyler Alamo drove in four runs leading the South Bend Cubs to a series sweep of Beloit with a 6-3 win Saturday night.

After Beloit scored three times in the top of the sixth to take a 3-1 lead, Eddy Julio Martinez delivered an RBI single scoring Donnie Dewees to cut the deficit to 3-2. Then Alamo started his big night with a 2-run single tallying Eloy Jimenez and Martinez to allow South Bend to re-gain the lead 4-3.

Alamo in the eighth inning, after just missing a grand slam with the ball going foul down the left field line, delivered a 2-run single to finish off his professional career high four run batted in game. The four-RBI game was also the most by a South Bend Cubs player this season.

South Bend starter Preston Morrison collected a no-decision after five and a third innings of three run ball (two earned). Greyfer Eregua (1-1) followed with an inning and two-thirds of shutout ball to collect the win. A hold was picked up by Scott Effross who struck out the side during a scoreless eighth.  Craig Brooks earned the save with a scoreless ninth.

The Cubs won all three games with Beloit and went 4-2 on the home stand. South Bend has now won 13 of their last 16 home games.

South Bend will not play Sunday on Mother’s Day. Monday the Cubs begin a fourteen game, fifteen day road trip that will take them through Dayton, Lansing, Midland and Eastlake. The Cubs visit the Dayton Dragons Monday at 7 p.m.
