KINSTON, N.C. - The Down East Bird Dawgs couldn't overcome a big early deficit and four costly errors Saturday night, falling 11-2 to the New York Boulders

The Boulders kept the momentum going in the fourth, scoring four runs capped by a two-run double from Jason Agresti. Kyle Hess hit the first home run of his pro career in the fifth to drive in two more, and Christian Ficca added an RBI double in the sixth to make it 11-0.
The Bird Dawgs evaded the shutout in the ninth, when Yeniel Laboy put two runs on the board, hitting his first home run of the season to cap the scoring at 11-2.
Axel Andueza (2-2) took the loss, allowing eight runs, four earned, on six hits over four innings.
