LAST GAME
The SeaWolves were roughed up by the Altoona Curve in the opener of their six-game series on Tuesday night at UPMC Park. Josh Lester continued his torrid run at the plate to keep Erie in contention, as he knocked a pair of two-run home runs, but Erie still fell 11-7. Altoona exploded for three runs in the second inning, and two more in the third against A.J. Ladwig, and used a pair of home runs against Ruben Garcia to keep Erie far enough away from a late-game charge. Lester smacked the pair of two-run bombs in the seventh and ninth innings, while Riley Greene added his own pair of RBI extra-base hits with a double in those same frames. Out of the bullpen, Cale Coshow was the only Erie pitcher to work scoreless, retiring five straight batters, including a perfect ninth inning.
