The Erie bats fell quiet when it mattered most last night, stranding a season-high 14 men on base in a 6-4 loss to Reading. While the offense put pressure on Mark Appel, chasing the former first overall pick out of the game in just the third inning, the Fightins bullpen danced around trouble for the rest of the night. Erie left the bases loaded twice, only managing one run against Taylor Lehman and Zach Warren in the process. Drew Ward provided some spark for the offense in the eighth inning, slapping a two-run home run to left field for his first as a Tigers farm hand. On the mound, Ricardo Pinto retired the first six batters of the game for Erie, but gave up three runs in the following two frames. Max Green worked efficiently in relief, striking out five and only allowing a solo home run. After taking the first three games of the set, Erie is on one last chance to take the season-opening series with the Fightins this afternoon.
