LAST GAME
The SeaWolves suffered their second consecutive loss on Friday night at UPMC Park, dropping the fourth game of their series with the Akron RubbeDucks 7-4. Chance Kirby logged a quality start for Erie behind 6.1 innings, and Spencer Torkelson went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, a double, and two runs scored. Chance Kirby earned his second quality start of the season for Erie, but ran into trouble in the seventh inning when Akron loaded the bases with one out. The frame became a nightmare for Erie pitching, as they made a pair of pitching changes, dealt with two errors, and allowed five total runs to score. Offensively, Torkelson, Brady Policelli, and Andre Lipcius all hit home runs for the SeaWolves.
