Gwinnett Stripers News Release


LAWRENCEVILLE, Ga. - In a three-hour and 21-minute offensive slugfest, the Gwinnett Stripers (7-8) finished on the losing end of a 15-9 loss against the Lehigh Valley IronPigs (12-4) on Tuesday afternoon at Coolray Field. Eddy Alvarez homered twice and tallied four RBIs in the losing cause.

Decisive Plays: The IronPigs took a 4-0 first inning lead and didn't look back, collecting four straight hits including a two-run homer from Garrett Stubbs (1) to knock Stripers starting pitcher Davis Daniel (L, 0-1) out of the game. Gwinnett got the game as close as 8-5 in the fourth with long-balls from Jose Devers (2) and Alvarez (2) but could not complete a comeback. Alvarez blasted another home run (3) and Cody Milligan added a two-run double in the seventh inning.

Key Contributors: Alvarez (2-for-5, 2 HR, 4 RBI) and Devers (3-for-5, 1 HR, 1 RBI) combined to tally five of Gwinnett's nine hits. Lehigh Valley was led offensively by Otto Kemp (4-for-6, 1 2B, 1 HR, 5 RBI) and Rodolfo Castro (3-for-4, 1 HR, 2 RBI).

Noteworthy: Dating back to Sunday's series finale in Norfolk, the Stripers' offense has scored 21 runs in the last two games. Alvarez is the first Gwinnett player with a multi-homer game this season, and he added two stolen bases to reach a team-high seven.

Next Game (Wednesday, April 16): Gwinnett vs. Lehigh Valley, 7:05 p.m. at Coolray Field. Chasen Shreve (1-1, 5.59 ERA) starts for the Stripers against Lehigh Valley's Seth Johnson (2-0, 1.88 ERA).
