JACKSONVILLE, Fla - The Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp offensive woes continued on Wednesday as they dropped their second consecutive game to the Lehigh Valley IronPigs 2-0 from 121 Financial Ballpark.

Jumbo Shrimp (10-11) starter Ronald Bolaños (0-1) surrendered a solo home run to Dalton Guthrie (2) to give the Lehigh Valley IronPigs (11-11) a 1-0 advantage in the fifth.

The IronPigs added to their lead in the eighth. Esteban Quiroz walked to begin the inning and stole second. Two batters later, Jordan Qsar knocked a base hit, scoring Quiroz to put Lehigh Valley up 2-0. Robert Garcia was able to buckle down and tally three strikeouts to end the threat.

In the final frame, Jordan Groshans walked before a strikeout. Groshans moved to second on a fielder's choice by Charles Leblanc before Jake Mangum reached on a fielding error. Mangum then swiped second to put the game-tying run in scoring position for Santiago Chavez, who went down looking to end the game.

Josh Simpson pitched 2.2 scoreless innings of relief for the Jumbo Shrimp.
