Aeros Stat of the Day:

. Tonight will be Akron's fourth doubleheader in 20 days. The Aeros played previous twin bills on August 3rd, 17th, and 22nd and have gone 1-5 in those games.

Aerodynamics.

. Home away from home. The Aeros will play a rare doubleheader in which they will be the home team for the continuation opener and be the away team for the nightcap. Akron and Bowie originally started a game at Canal Park before weather postponed the game. Because it was the last time the Baysox were scheduled to visit Akron this season, the game has to be made up in Bowie. Action will resume Bowie batting in the top of the second with Brandon Waring on first with the game scoreless.

. The Senate rules. Harrisburg completed a three-game series sweep of Akron yesterday with a pair of wins by counts of 6-1 (eight innings) and 2-1. Harrisburg scored first in game one in the third inning on an RBI double by Chris MarreroAkron tied it up in the bottom of the sixth when third baseman Lonnie Chisenhall doubled in center fielder Jordan Henry from first. The game went extra innings, but the Sens scored five in the eighth to score the win. Left-handed reliever Nick Hagadone took the loss and four-time World Series champion Orlando Hernandez earned the win. In game two, Harrisburg jumped out 1-0 in the second frame when Devin Ivany hit in Chris Marrero on a groundout. Ivany also hit an RBI single in the fourth. Akron finally scored in the sixth when shortstop Carlos Rivero hit an RBI single and drove in right fielder Jerad Head, who reached on a walk and moved over on a ground out by first baseman Beau Mills. It was not enough, however, as the hosts left three on base in the inning and fell 2-1.
