LHV Game Notes

April 11, 2016 - International League (IL1)
Lehigh Valley IronPigs News Release


After starting the season in bizarre fashion, the IronPigs start a three-game series against the Rochester Red Wings at Frontier Field. The Pigs were supposed to play a four-game series in Syracuse to open the season. However, as a result of unplayable field conditions at NBT Bank Stadium, they instead played a doubleheader against the Chiefs as the road team at Coca-Cola Park in front of zero fans* on Friday -- and were swept by scores of 5-1 and 2-1 (*games were closed to the public as preparations for the home opener at CCP were still underway)... The Red Wings -- Minnesota's top affiliate -- finished in second place in the North with a 77-67 record a year ago. The Wings have started this season by taking two of three from Scranton/WB (1-1 in Moosic; 1-0 in Rochester).

RHP Zach Eflin (8-6, 3.69 in EL in 2015) will make his Triple-A debut for LHV against LHP Logan Darnell (5-1, 2.78 in IL in 2015).

First-Pitch is set for 6:35 p.m.
