Last Game: Sunday: Lansing 9, Dayton 6. The Lugnuts erased a 4-1 Dragons lead with six runs in the bottom of the seventh inning on the way to evening the series at one win apiece. It was a tough day for the Dayton bullpen, which combined to work two and one-third innings while allowing eight runs. The Dragons had 12 hits and were led by Michael Siani (3 for 5, HR, 3 RBI, SB). Matt Lloyd, Cameron Warren, and Randy Ventura each had two hits for Dayton. Starting pitcher Clate Schmidt was brilliant for the Dragons as a late addition to the lineup, allowing just one run in five and two-thirds innings while retiring the last 10 batters he faced.
