Today’s Game: The Oklahoma City Comets close out their current and season series against the Albuquerque Isotopes at 6:05 p.m. at Chickasaw Bricktown Ballpark…Albuquerque has a 3-2 edge in the current series and the Comets need a win today to secure a series split and avoid their fourth series loss of the season…Oklahoma City has a one-game lead in the overall season series with the Isotopes, 9-8.

Last Game: The Oklahoma City Comets led early, but the Albuquerque Isotopes came back to send the Comets to a 7-5 loss Saturday night in a back-and-forth game at Chickasaw Bricktown Ballpark. Oklahoma City went ahead, 1-0, in the first inning on a RBI single by Luken Baker. Albuquerque evened the score in its next at-bat on a RBI single by Owen Miller.

Today’s Probable Pitcher: Christian Romero makes his fourth start with the Comets after joining the team from High-A Great Lakes at the end of July…He started Tuesday’s series opener against the Isotopes, allowing five runs on seven hits, including a home run, over 4.0 IP with one walk and two strikeouts and did not factor into the decision of OKC’s 8-6 win…He tossed 5.0 scoreless innings Aug. 6 in El Paso and limited the Chihuahuas to three hits, one walk and one hit batter with three strikeouts in OKC’s 7-6 loss…He has also made 16 appearances (six starts) with Great Lakes…
