Rain-Shortened 3-1 Win Seals Series Victory

Wells cruises through five innings for 7th win.

 

BOWIE, Md. -- A tropical monsoon on Island Luau Night completed a 3-1 victory for the Bowie Baysox over the Harrisburg Senators in five innings in front of 4,588 at Prince George's Stadium Saturday night.

 

Harrisburg (5-12) used a Tres Barrera sacrifice fly to score an unearned run in the first inning, but Bowie needed just two batters to take their first lead of the night. Mason McCoy reached on a throwing error from shortstop Luis Garcia and scored one pitch later on a two-run shot to straightaway center field by D.J. Stewart. 

 

The Baysox (14-4) used the long ball to extend their lead in the fifth inning. One batter before the tarp was placed on the field, Stuart Levy launched his second home run since joining the club (& second against the Senators) to right-center field, increasing the advantage to 3-1. With the win, Bowie has won 10 straight Eastern League series.

 

Meanwhile, Alex Wells cruised to his seventh win of the season by holding the visitors to two hits and the one unearned run over five innings, striking out six batters while retiring 14 of the final 15 batters faced. The lefty recorded his fifth win in his last seven games ahead of his appearance in the 2019 Eastern League All-Star Game Wednesday in Richmond.

 

The final game of the 2019 season before the All-Star Break starts at 1:35 p.m., when Baysox RHP Dean Kremer (4-4, 3.35 ERA) goes for his fourth straight win against Harrisburg RHP Jackson Tetrault (3-4, 3.88 ERA) in the series finale.

LUTZ, AGUILAR SWEEP KEYS

FREDERICK HELD WINLESS AT FIVE COUNTY STADIUM IN 2019

ZEBULON, NC – A bases clearly double from Tristen Lutz in the eighth inning dashed a comeback from the Frederick Keys (5-12, 34-52) after they fell 8-3 to the Carolina Mudcats (9-8, 48-38) on Saturday night at Five County Stadium. It is the second straight series the Keys have been swept and marks the sixth straight loss. Frederick leaves Zebulon, NC winless in six contests at Five County Stadium in 2019. Ryan Aguilar finished 2-for-2 with two doubles and three RBIs for Carolina while Zach Jarrett went 2-for-4 with a home run, a double and two runs scored. In the series, Aguilar had three doubles, a home run, six RBIs and five runs scored while Lutz brought home six runs as well.

After Jarrett hit a solo home run to bring the deficit to 5-3, the Mudcats got back-to-back singles to open up the bottom of the eighth. Tim Naughton struck out the next batter and then intentionally walked Aguilar with a vacant first base. That loaded the bases for Lutz, who poked a double into right field and made it to third base after Jarrett bobbled the ball. Naughton struck out the side to finish the inning and Justin Topa closed it out for Carolina in the ninth.

For the third straight game, the Mudcats scored a pair of runs in the opening frame. Wes Rogers led off with a triple and Aguilar doubled into the right field corner to score him. A batter later, Mario Feliciano hit an RBI single to make it 2-0 Carolina.

Cody Sedlock missed plenty of bats but dealt with traffic his entire outing. He allowed a run in the third inning and struggled in the fifth. He allowed two base hits and a big double to Aguilar that scored both runners and made it 5-1 Mudcats. After he got two quick outs, Sedlock was pulled after walking Rob Henry.

Sedlock (4-1) took his first loss of the season after allowing five runs on a season-high eight hits while also striking out eight batters, his highest total since April 8.

Meanwhile, Aaron Ashby pitched well for the Mudcats. The southpaw scattered five hits and gave up runs in the fourth and sixth innings. Jomar Reyes led off the fourth with a double to straight away centerfield and scored on Trevor Craport’s groundball to get Fredrick on the board 3-1. Trailing 5-1 in the sixth, Jarrett hit a double and came in on Reyes’ single.

Ashby (2-2) pitched a clean seventh to end his outing. He walked four batters and struck out three over seven innings, the third time in five starts he has completed seven frames.

The Keys head to Winston-Salem to take on the Dash for a three-game set starting on Sunday, July 7. RHP Zach Lewis (5-3, 5.95) takes the mound for the Dash. First pitch is scheduled for 2:00pm. Pregame coverage is set to start at 1:45pm on frederickkeys.com and the Tune In radio app. 

The Frederick Keys are the Advanced-A affiliate of the Baltimore Orioles, and play their home games at Nymeo Field at Harry Grove Stadium. Following the 2018 season, the Keys were named the winner of the Carolina League’s Complete Franchise Award. This goes to a team in the league which demonstrates franchise stability and significant contributions to its community and the league.
