Lehigh Valley IronPigs News Release
The IronPigs (42-44) play the finale of a two-game, home series against the first-place Syracuse Chiefs (51-35), owners of the best record in all of Triple-A... With a 2-1 walk-off win in 10 innings last night, the Pigs have won three consecutive affairs to rebound from a three-game skid. Still, Lehigh Valley has dropped seven of its last 11 contests and, since May 30, has gone just 13-19, falling from second place and 0.5 GB in the North to fifth place and 9.0 GB... Syracuse -- Washington's top affiliate -- has dropped back-to-back games for just the second time since May 18 (a span of 43 games) and has gone just 3-5 since the IronPigs left Syracuse last week. However, the Chiefs remain 30-13 (.698) since falling to 21-22 on May 18 -- a span that included winning streaks of eight (June 17-24) and six (May 19-25) and reaching a high-water mark of 18 games above .500 the first time since ending the 1998 season at 80-62 on Sept. 7 (a span of 5,789 days).
RHP Barry Enright (3-8, 5.28) will start for LHV against RHP A.J. Cole (0-0, 1.59).
Tonight features an Independence Day 3-D Fireworks Extravaganza, presented by AT&T... First-Pitch is at 7:05 p.m.
