Kinston Indians News Release


Kinston starter Carlton Smith had his best outing of the season, leading the K-Tribe to a 3-1 victory over Potomac. Smith went seven innings, giving up three hits and no runs. Sung-Wei Tseng, just sent down from Double A Akron, finished the game for Kinston and picked up his first save of the season.

The K-Tribe got on the board in the bottom of the first inning when Beau Mills singled home Adam Davis. Both teams' bats would be silent until Kinston opened up the seventh inning with a Jared Goedert walk. Nick Weglarz then singled to put runners on the corners. Goedert would score on a ground ball to Potomac's shortstop Seth Bynum. Bynum fired to plate, but the ball was mishandled by catcher Brian Peacock and Goedert was safe. Later in the inning, Nick Weglarz scored from second when Peacock had trouble finding a wild pitch from Potomac reliever Carlos Martinez. Adam Davis went 3-for-4 on the night for the K-Tribe.

Kinston's now won six of their last eight games and will go for their fourth series win in a row on Sunday. Jeanmar Gomez will take the mound against Potomac Sunday afternoon at 2pm.
