MOOSIC, PA - An early Indians lead was undone by a three-run home run from Scranton/Wilkes-Barre's Donovan Solano in the fourth inning as the RailRiders completed a sweep of Indianapolis on Sunday at PNC Field.
Gift Ngoepe reached on a base hit in the third before scoring on an RBI knock from Pedro Floriomon to give the Indians (17-18) a 1-0 advantage early.
The RailRiders (21-17) answered in the fourth with four runs, three of which came on Solano's first home run of the season.
Scranton/WB would add to its lead with a run in the sixth, seventh, and eighth innings. Rob Refsnyder collected two more home runs, solo shots, for the home club.
Wilfredo Boscan (3-4) matched his season high of four earned runs allowed over six innings. He walked one and struck out four in his second consecutive loss.
He was opposed by Dietrich Enns (1-0) making his Triple-A debut, who limited the Tribe to four hits over six innings. He allowed just one unearned run to cross.
Indianapolis finished 2-5 on the seven-game road trip. The Tribe returns home to host Columbus on Monday at 7:05 p.m.
