Dayton Dragons News Release


Dayton, Ohio - The Lansing Lugnuts scored one run in the eighth inning to break a 3-3 tie and then held on to defeat the Dayton Dragons 4-3 on Tuesday night at Fifth Third Field. The Lugnuts won three-of-four in the series.

The Dragons trailed 3-0 before enjoying a big inning in the bottom of the seventh to tie the game. Malik Collymore walked to start the inning and eventually scored from third on a two-out infield single by Jose Siri to make it 3-1. Siri stole second and third and Taylor Trammell drew a walk. Bruce Yari followed with a double over the head of the center fielder to drive in both Siri and Trammell and make it 3-3.

But Lansing scored in the next half inning, keyed by a one-out double by Mattingly Romanin that advanced a runner to third base. Luis Silva's infield ground out brought in the run to break the tie. The Dragons did not have a base runner over their final two offensive innings.

Dayton finished with five hits. Trammell led the attack with two hits, two walks, and two stolen bases. Yari had a two-run double and a walk. Siri had one hit to extend his on-base streak to 47 straight games. He also stole two bases to increase his league-leading total to 34.

The loss was charged to the third Dragons pitcher of the night, Joel Kuhnel (1-4), who allowed the run in the eighth. Kuhnel worked the final two innings and gave up two hits while striking out three and allowing just the one run.
