LAKEWOOD, N.J. - The BlueClaws trailed through five innings before scoring twice in the 6th to take a 4-3 lead Saturday's 4-3 win over the Hickory Crawdads.

Kelly Dugan doubled home Carlos Perdomo from first base to tie the game 3-3, and two batters later Aaron Altherr singled to score Dugan for the go-ahead run. Dugan finished the game 2-for-3 with a walk, two doubles, two runs and an RBI.

Starting pitcher Colin Kleven allowed three runs with two outs in the 5th inning after throwing 4.2 scoreless innings to begin the ballgame. The runs were all on a three-run homer by Chris Grayson- his sixth of the season for Hickory. The blast gave the Crawdads their only lead of the game.
