A pair of Ruben Sierra Home runs in the final two innings, including a walk off grand slam, led the Spokane Indians to an 11-7 victory over the Eugene Emeralds last night in Spokane. Sierra hit a two-run home run in the eighth to tie the game at seven-seven, then with two outs and the bases loaded in the bottom of the ninth, unloaded one over the left field fence off Eugene reliever Chris Wilkes to end the game. The Ems led 6-1 early in the game, but couldn’t hang on as five Eugene pitchers combined to give up 18 hits. The loss also knocked the Emeralds out of first place in the West Division of the Northwest League for the first time this season. The two teams meet again tonight and through the weekend in Spokane.
