Jersey Shore BlueClaws News Release


LAKEWOOD, N.J. -- A five-run third inning for the Hickory Crawdads was all they needed to jump out to an early lead and cruise to a 7-1 victory over the BlueClaws Thursday night.

Starting pitcher Ramon Oviedo collected his fourth consecutive loss and now has a 1-4 record in five starts with the BlueClaws. Oviedo allowed six runs- all earned- in four innings while striking out a season-high six batters. In his last four starts Oviedo has allowed 22 earned runs in his last 16.1 innings (12.21 ERA).
