Baysox Shut out for Second Straight Night

April 19, 2025 - Eastern League (EL)
Chesapeake Baysox News Release


RICHMOND, VA. - The Chesapeake Baysox, the Double-A affiliate of the Baltimore Orioles, were shut out for a second straight game by the Richmond Flying Squirrels, the Double-A affiliate of the San Francisco Giants, by a final score of 1-0 on Saturday night from The Diamond.

Chesapeake starting right-hander Patrick Reilly threw a scoreless first inning on 10 pitches but was removed from the game thereafter and did not return due to right elbow discomfort.

Richmond (4-10) scored the game's only run in the third against right-handed reliever Preston Johnson (L, 1-1). After Johnson walked the leadoff hitter Justin Wishkoski, a balk advanced him to second. Aeverson Arteaga singled Wishkoski to third before Carter Howell drove him in with a sacrifice fly to left.

Flying Squirrels starting left-hander Jack Choate delivered 4.2 shutout innings and allowed just one hit, three walks and struck out seven in a no-decision. Right-hander Evan Gates (W, 1-0) pitched 2.1 scoreless innings with four strikeouts to earn his first win of the year.

Chesapeake (8-6) collected just one hit through the first six innings and just three hits the entire game. Adam Retzbach tallied two of the three Baysox hits, including a double in the third. Douglas Hodo III extended his team-best on-base streak to 11 games with a fourth inning walk.

Chesapeake's best chance was in the fourth when Choate walked back-to-back batters to load the bases with one out, but he struck out Frederick Bencosme and got Retzbach to fly out to right to escape the threat.

Right-handers Peter Van Loon, Dylan Coleman, and Keagan Gillies combined for 5.1 innings of shutout relief and six strikeouts.

Richmond's Trent Harris (S, 1) collected his first Double-A save with a 1-2-3 ninth.

Chesapeake concludes its six-game road trip against Richmond tomorrow afternoon. RHP Ryan Long is scheduled to start for Chesapeake against LHP Seth Lonsway for Richmond. First pitch is scheduled for 1:35 pm from The Diamond.

The next Baysox homestand is scheduled to start on Tuesday, April 22 at 6:05 pm against the Altoona Curve, the Double-A affiliate of the Pittsburgh Pirates.
