The Spokane Indians are grinding their way to just their third day off in the entire season. Thursday's 9-4 loss to Eugene didn't help the mood either.

The Chiefs, playing on a season-high eight game road trip tripped up against the Emeralds.

The Ems' Casey McElroy hit a two-run homer in the first inning to take the early lead. He hit another single shot in the fourth to push Eugene's lead to 6-2.

Spokane cut into the lead on a two-run double by Trever Adams. But seven errors proved too costly for the Tribe to make up.

Spokane starter Santo Perez was tagged for six runs - three of them earned - in just 2-and-2/3 innings pitched.

The Indians play in Eugene three more times before getting a day off on Monday. They return to Spokane for a series against Everett beginning on Tuesday.
