Norfolk Tides News Release
NORFOLK, Va - The Norfolk Tides (20-36) fell to the Lehigh Valley IronPigs (41-16), 13-4, on Sunday at Harbor Park. The Tides dropped five of six games against first-place Lehigh Valley, prior to hitting the road to Louisville in the upcoming week.
It was all Lehigh Valley all game. They scored 12 unanswered runs, including a nine-run inning in the third inning. That was fueled by a grand slam off the bat of Gabriel Rincones, Jr., his sixth home run of the season.
Colton Cowser highlighted the Tides offense, going 2-for-4 on the day with a run, a double, two RBI and a stolen base. The only other offensive highlight on the day game from Samuel Basallo, who blasted his 10th home run of the season in the third inning.
After a scheduled league off day tomorrow, the Tides will head to Louisville to face off against the Bats. Neither team announced their probables, with first pitch at 6:35 p.m.
