The San Antonio Missions beat the Oklahoma City Dodgers 5-3 on the road Thursday night.

It was San Antonio’s first game in Triple-A.

Tyrone Taylor scored the Missions’ historic first run in Triple-A.

Taylor led off the second inning with a home run off of pitcher Clayton Kershaw. The Missions’ Troy Stokes scored later in the inning to give the Missions a 2-0 lead.

Kershaw, a Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher, was starting for Oklahoma City on a rehab assignment.

The same teams meet again Friday night at 7:05 p.m. in Oklahoma City.
