ERIE, Pa. - Konnor Griffin knocked his fifth Double-A homer in his 17th game with Altoona to help the Curve cruise to an 11-2 win over the Erie SeaWolves on Wednesday night at UPMC Park in Erie.
Griffin homered in the fifth, drove in two in the sixth and added an RBI single in the eighth inning to finish off his third three-hit game with the Curve. Griffin is batting .344 with Altoona and has hits in 14 of 17 games played at Double-A.
