LANCASTER BARNSTORMERS vs. BRIDGEPORT BLUEFISH

 

Bridgeport, CT - The Bridgeport Bluefish were defeated by the Lancaster Barnstormers, 5-4, Wednesday evening in front of 1,785 fans at the Ballpark at Harbor Yard.

The Barnstormers took an early two run lead as Travis Hake scored on an overthrow to second base in an attempt to catch Quincy Foster stealing. Foster scored on an RBI groundout by Ryan Minor to put Lancaster up 2-0.

Gary Burnham hit a stand up triple to right centerfield that was argued by pitching coach Jim Dedrick to be a homerun off the scoreboard. D.J. Boston and Willis Otanez both scored and Dedrick was ejected on the play. Jamie Gann
followed with a single to right field to score Burnham and give the 'Fish a 3-4 lead.

Lancaster took a one run lead in the top of the third inning as Foster scored for the second time on a Jutt Hileman RBI double. Hileman came around to score on a single by Oreste Marrero.

The game saw its third tie of the game as Brady Williams walked and was driven home on an off the wall double by Jason Torres to right center field. Ryan Minor broke the tie in the top of the ninth with a solo homerun over the left field wall to give the Barnstormers the win, 5-4.

Bridgeport starter Brad Cornett went 5.1 innings, allowing four runs, one earned, on seven hits while striking out one and walking four. Lancaster starter Joe Dawley pitched six innings, allowing four runs on three hits while walking four and striking out six.
