Frederick Ends Kinston's Four Game Win Streak
May 21, 2011 - Carolina League (CarL1)
Kinston Indians News Release
Frederick's Tyler Kolodny hit a home run in the bottom of the ninth inning as Frederick walked off with a 3-1 victory Saturday night in Maryland. The shot ended Kinston's four game win streak. The dramatic ending overshadowed a great pitching night for both starters.
Casey Frawley hit his third home run of the season in the top of the first inning, as the solo shot gave Kinston a 1-0 lead. Frederick starting pitcher Bobby Bundy would recover in a big way, retiring the next fifteen K-Tribe batters. Bundy went eight innings, giving up just three hits. He struck out eight and did not walk a batter.
Kinston starting pitcher Brett Brach had a perfect game going into the fourth inning, as he retired the first ten Frederick Keys he faced. After giving up a walk and a single with one-out in the fourth inning, Brach retired the next seven batters he faced. Brach allowed just one more base runner through his final three innings of work. The New Jersey native went seven innings, giving up one hit while striking out three.
Frederick would ruin Brach's pitching gem in the eighth inning. With K-Tribe reliever Tyler Sturdevant on the hill, Frederick's Brian Ward delivered a one-out double. After a strike out, Bobby Stevens dropped in a soft single to left to score Ward and tie things at one run a piece. In the bottom of the ninth inning, L.J. Hoes led off with a double. After a Bo Greenwell diving catch robbed Tyler Townsend of a hit, Kolodny hit the walk off smash. Sturdevant (2-2) took the loss; he had come into the outing with a 0.83 ERA. Sean Gleason (1-0) got the win from the Keys bullpen. Kinston managed four hits on the night, as the Keys had only five.
The road series ends in Frederick Sunday at 2pm. T.J. House gets the start for Kinston (18-23). Kinston returns home to Grainger Stadium for a holiday homestand May 26th through June 2nd.
