Wahoos, Biscuits Suspended in Second Inning

July 12, 2013 - Southern League (SL1)
Pensacola Blue Wahoos News Release


The Blue Wahoos were threatening to break a scoreless tie in the top of the second inning with runners at first and third and nobody out Friday night when the game was delayed and eventually suspended at Riverwalk Stadium. The game will be resumed from the point it was suspended with Travis Mattair coming to the plate and runners at the corners.

Donald Lutz started the inning with a double before Tucker Barnhart reached on a bunt single creating the threat for Pensacola. After a large bolt of lightning struck near the stadium the game was delayed, and a heavy downpour followed quickly behind and never let up long enough for the game to resume. Pensacola was retired in order in the first inning by Biscuits starter Michael Colla. The Biscuits got a pair of two-out hits in the bottom of the inning against Ryan Dennick, but didn't score.

The two teams will resume the suspended contest to a nine inning conclusion on Saturday beginning at 5:00 p.m. before a seven inning game for the regularly scheduled fourth game of the series. When the game resumes, RHP Marquis Fleming will be on the mound for the Biscuits. The Blue Wahoos will use RHP Daniel Renken. Game two will feature RHP Josh Smith for the Blue Wahoos against Biscuits RHP Victor Mateo.
