Lehigh Valley IronPigs News Release


The Pigs (14-16) play Game Two of a four-game series against the third-place Louisville Bats (14-17)... With a 4-1 win last night, the Pigs have now won four consecutive games for the first time this season and have improved to 4-1 on this eight-game West Division homestand... The Bats -- Cincinnati's top affiliate -- previously split a four-game series in Buffalo, so they are now 2-3 on this eight-game North Division road trip. Even with the loss, they've gone 4-3 since a season-high five-game losing streak (and a season-worst 10-14 record).

RHP B.J. Rosenberg (0-3, 5.11) will start for LHV against RHP Armando Galarraga (1-1, 1.80).

Tonight is Tyler Cloyd Bobblehead Doll Night, presented by St. Luke's University Health Network... First-Pitch is at 7:05 p.m.

FORE! With the win last night, the Pigs have their first four-game winning streak of the season and their first since 7/1/12-7/3/12 (included a DH sweep on 7/1 vs. PAW)... Tonight, they will look for their first five-game winning streak since 5/14/12-5/18/12... The 2012 season-high was a six-gamer (4/11-4/16) and the longest winning streak in LHV history is a seven-gamer from 6/14/09-6/20/09.
