Harrisburg Senators News Release


The Harrisburg Senators slugged their way back to the .500 mark Thursday night, taking down the Hartford Yard Goats 8-6 in a back-and-forth battle at Dunkin' Park.

Harrisburg grabbed an early 2-0 lead in the third on a Kevin Made RBI groundout and Branden Boissiere's sacrifice fly, but Hartford answered with three in the fourth. The Senators roared back with a five-run fifth, highlighted by RBI hits from Made, Boissiere, Carlos De La Cruz, Sam Brown, and Joe Naranjo to make it 7-3.

The Yard Goats quickly cut the margin to 7-6 in the bottom half thanks to Cole Carrigg's three-run homer, but the Senators bullpen held firm. De La Cruz added insurance in the ninth with a solo blast, his 11th of the year, and Daison Acosta locked down his fourth save with a scoreless ninth. Hyun-il Choi and Dustin Saenz combined for three scoreless innings facing just nine batters.

Jackson Kent (1-0) earned the win in his Senators debut despite allowing six runs over five innings. Harrisburg pounded out 15 hits, led by Cayden Wallace's three-hit night and multi-RBI performances from Made, Boissiere, and De La Cruz.
