Battery Powers 5-2 Baysox Win

Bowie wins third straight game and snaps four-game skid vs. Akron

 

BOWIE, Md. – Two home runs helped the Bowie Baysox earn a 5-2 series-opening victory over the Akron RubberDucks in front of 2,294 at Prince George's Stadium Thursday night.

 

A Connor Marabell first-inning double gave the Ducks a quick 1-0 lead, but the Baysox (7-2) responded with a tying run in the bottom half of the opening frame. An infield single and a walk, along with a two-runner advancement on a fly ball to right field set the table for Carlos Perez, who lifted a sacrifice fly to left field to plate Mason McCoy.

 

Perez continued his torrid beginning of the game during his second at-bat in the third inning. With two out, a 3-1 offering from Akron starter Jake Paulson was lifted high and far down the left field line. McCoy, who recorded his 20th multi-hit game since joining the Baysox on May 6, and Yusniel Diaz both scored on the fourth home run of the season for the Bowie backstop.

 

Logan Ice sent the first pitch of the fifth inning deep over the right field wall to cut into the Baysox lead, but Preston Palmeiro re-extended the advantage with a solo home run of his own in the seventh inning. The Bowie first baseman sent his third long ball of the season to a similar spot in right field, giving the hosts a 5-2 lead.

 

Dean Kremer earned his second consecutive win by holding a potent Ducks offense to two runs (one earned) on five hits with three strikeouts. Michael Baumann earned his first career save by shutting out Akron over the final four innings in his first career appearance at Prince George’s Stadium.

 

Alex Call greeted the right-hander by tripling to lead off the sixth inning. A one-out walk put runners on the corners, but Baumann caught Mitch Longo looking and forced an Alexis Pantoja fielder’s choice to escape the jam. Similarly, Akron puts runners on second and third base in the eighth inning, but one of six strikeouts and a fly out kept the visitors off the board.

AJARDO HITS GO-AHEAD HOME RUN IN WIN

BULLPEN SEALS THE DEAL AFTER BISHOP’S QUALITY OUTING

FREDERICK, MD. – A three-run, seventh inning lifted the Frederick Keys (4-4, 33-44) over the Wilmington Blue Rocks (4-4, 48-29) by a 4-1 score on Thursday night at Nymeo Field. With the game tied 1-1 in the seventh, Daniel Fajardo powered a two-run shot to give the Keys the lead. Robbie Thorburn then walked, stole second, advanced to third on a throwing error, and scored on a wild pitch all within two pitches to make it 4-1. Diogenes Almengo and Tim Naughton polished off the final three frames to preserve the lead.

Wilmington was able to strike early on in the second inning. Cristian Perez led off with a single and was moved to second on a sacrifice bunt. Sebastian Rivero then launched a double off the left-field wall, scoring Perez to make it 1-0.

That was all Cameron Bishop allowed, however. The southpaw was dominant, scattering six hits while tying a season-high eight strikeouts over six innings. He picked up his third quality start of the season.

Daniel Tillo held the Keys off the scoreboard until the sixth. Thorburn hit a swinging bunt up the third base line and Tillo’s throw sailed over the first baseman’s head. That put Thorburn on second with no one out. A batter later, J.C. Escarra smacked one up the middle, scoring Thorburn to tie the game 1-1.

The Keys capitalized the next inning on Fajardo’s home run.

Almengo (3-3) tossed two scoreless innings in relief. He struck out three batters and earned the win. Meanwhile, Naughton (S, 1) picked up his first Carolina League save with a flawless ninth.

Walker Sheller (0-1) took the loss after allowing the three runs in the seventh inning.
