Then Max Ferguson hit an RBI single which gave the Sea Dogs a 2-1 lead. In the next at-bat, Marvin Alcantara hit an RBI sacrifice fly which made the score 3-1.
MAXIMUM DESTRUCTION Sea Dogs utility man Max Ferguson has caught fire as of late. In his last 15 games, Ferguson is slashing .313 (15-for-48) with three doubles, two home runs (one of them a grand slam), while adding 11 RBI and four stolen bases. The Former Tennessee Volunteer also took home Eastern League Player of the Week honor (7/28-8/3) after hitting .438 (7-for-16) that week. In additon, he is also riding a three-game hitting streak (8/9-present).
HOME RUN BARRAGE Three Sea Dogs cranked home runs in last night's win over Somerset. Catcher Ronald Rosario, designated hitter Ronaldo Hernández, and infielder Karson Simas. The home run parade marks the second time this season that the Sea Dogs have homered three times in a single game. The first time was back on 6/1 against Altoona when former Sea Dogs outfielder Zach Ehrhard launched two home runs along with catcher Mark Kolozsvary in a 7-5 loss.
