LHV Game Notes

July 28, 2015 - International League (IL1)
Lehigh Valley IronPigs News Release


The 2015 IronRail Series continues as the IronPigs (47-56) play the finale of a two-game series -- and Game 2 of a four-game, home-and-home series -- against the first-place Scranton-WB RailRiders (56-48) at PNC Field... With a 3-1 last night, the Pigs have now won four consecutive games over the RailRiders to take a 6-4 lead in the season series. The surging Pigs have won 18 of their last 26 affairs and sport the IL's best record (25-14) since June 14 after falling back to their low-water mark (22-42) of the season... The RailRiders -- the Yankees' top affiliate -- snapped their five-game winning streak a victory shy of tying their season-high six-gamer (June 8-13). Even though they've won five of their last six contests, the Riders are just 13-17 since June 25 -- a span that started with an 8-16 skid.... The Pigs next return home for a two-game series with the Riders followed by a three-game set with Norfolk.

LHP Jesse Biddle (2-0, 4.80) will start for LHV against RHP Joel La Cruz (6-0, 2.84).

First Pitch is at 7:05 p.m.
