Lehigh Valley IronPigs News Release


Allentown, Pennsylvania - The Lehigh Valley IronPigs (45-23) were unable to find 10th inning magic for a second straight night as they fell 5-3 to the Worcester Red Sox (37-30) in 10 innings on Saturday evening at Coca-Cola Park.

Worcester opened the scoring for a fifth straight game, plating a run on a groundball double play in the first inning. They tacked on two more in the fourth, as Phillip Sikes drove home a run with a groundout and Corey Rosier ripped an RBI double.

Held scoreless until the eighth, the 'Pigs rallied with their backs against the wall. With the bases loaded, a wild pitch allowed Rafael Lantigua to score the first run for the 'Pigs. Buddy Kennedy then smashed a two-run single to left, tying the game at 3-3.

In the 10th, Blaze Jordan poked a double into the rightfield corner, scoring one run with another run scoring on the play thanks to a throwing error.

A line drive double play ended the game for the 'Pigs after they put the tying run on base in the last of the 10th.

Bryan Mata (2-0) got the win for the WooSox working 1.1 scoreless frames, allowing a hit and a walk, striking out two. Wyatt Mills (S, 1) converted the save with a scoreless 10th, allowing a hit and striking out one.

Seth Johnson (2-3) took the loss for the 'Pigs, allowing two unearned runs in two innings on a hit and two walks, striking out three.

The IronPigs and WooSox wrap up their series on Sunday, June 15th at Coca-Cola Park. First pitch is slated for 1:35 p.m. with Andrew Painter (2-2, 5.19) on the mound for the 'Pigs while Worcester rides with Cooper Criswell (2-1, 1.52).
