KEIZER, Ore. – Three Spokane pitchers combined to limit Salem-Keizer to one hit in a 3-2 Northwest League victory Wednesday night that snapped the Indians’ four-game losing streak.

Indians starter Jose Valdespina allowed two runs – one earned – and the lone hit over four innings. He struck out six and walked five. Relievers Richard Alvarez (2-2) and Alec Asher kept the Volcanoes hitless the rest of the way, with Asher striking out four of the six batters he faced to earn his third save. Salem-Keizer scored its two runs in the first inning. In addition to their only hit, the Volcanoes were helped by two errors, a walk and a hit batter in the inning.
