ERIE, PA- The Chesapeake Baysox, the Double-A affiliate of the Baltimore Orioles, fell to the Erie SeaWolves, the Double-A affiliate of the Detroit Tigers, by a 2-0 final on Saturday night.

Chesapeake (30-36) was limited to just three hits on Saturday. Erie's right-handed starter Austin Bergner (W, 5-3) allowed just a single hit in five, shutout innings. The Baysox had their best chance to score in the sixth, when Creed Willems singled, stole second, and advanced to third on an error, but he was left stranded. Reed Trimble and Doug Hodo collected the other two hits for Chesapeake.

Right-handed starter Levi Wells was sharp in his return from the Baysox injured list. Wells allowed one run in three innings. Wells (L, 0-4) struck out Eastern League hits leader Max Anderson on a 97-mph fastball with runners on the corners in the third. Jake Holton singled home the game's opening run later in the frame.
