The Erie SeaWolves shutout the Akron RubberDucks 2-0 on Friday night at Canal Park.

Turning Point

The SeaWolves jumped ahead quickly in the first. Carlos Mendoza opened the game with a walk before advancing to third on a Jake Holton single. Chris Meyers followed with a sac-fly to center to make it 1-0 Erie.

Mound Presence

Dylan DeLucia settled in quickly after allowing the run in the first. The right-hander did not allow another hit until the fourth and finished his night with five innings of one run baseball with one strikeout. Magnus Ellerts struck out three and allowed one run over two innings. Zach Jacobs tossed two scoreless innings with two strikeouts.

Duck Tales

The RubberDucks offense was active early getting a baserunner in each of the first three innings. Guy Lipscomb doubled with one out but was stranded there. Cooper Ingle singled in the third but did not advance past first. SeaWolves pitching held Akron without a hit the rest of the way after Ingle's single.
