Lehigh Valley IronPigs News Release
After last night's game against Charlotte was suspended 3-3 in the top of the fourth inning, the IronPigs (15-12) play Game One of a two-game series against the Syracuse Chiefs (10-18) at Coca-Cola Park... With a 6-5 loss on Thursday, the Pigs fell short in a bid for a three-game winning streak and dropped to 4-6 on this 13-game* "homestand" (*which now won't be complete until May 24)... The Chiefs -- Washington's top affiliate -- have lost three straight games after a 9-0 white-washing in Buffalo last night -- dumping their series at Coca-Cola Field, 3-1. Prior to this recent skid, the Chiefs had won seven of nine affairs after starting 3-13.
