Lehigh Valley IronPigs News Release
After their last of five scheduled off days, the IronPigs (54-69) start a six-game road trip with Game 1 of a three-game series against the first-place Scranton-WB RailRiders (69-54) at PNC Field... With a 7-1 loss to Pawtucket on Sunday, the Pigs have now dropped six of their last seven contests overall and nine of their last 10 affairs against the North Division. Still, the Pigs are 32-27 since reaching their low-water mark on June 13 (22-42)... The RailRiders -- the Yankees' top affiliate -- lost 3-2 in 12 innings at Rochester on Sunday to drop the three-game set at Frontier Field, 2-1. However, the back-to-back losses came after a six-game winning streak. Since July 22, the red-hot Riders have posted an 18-7 record to build a buffer in the North... The Riders most recently took a four-game, home-and-home series against the Pigs, 3-1, from July 27-30. The Pigs did split the last series in Moosic, a two-game set July 27-28.
RHP Sean O'Sullivan (1-2, 4.97) will start for LHV against LHP Eric Wooten (2-3, 4.95).
First Pitch is at 7:05 p.m.
