Lehigh Valley IronPigs News Release
The first-place IronPigs (70-47) play Game 2 of a three-game series against the Louisville Bats (52-62) at Louisville Slugger Field... With a 5-3 loss last night, the Pigs have started 0-4 on this six-game, West Division road trip and have lost four in a row for the first time this season. This recent skid comes after the Pigs had won 13 of their prior 17 contests from July 13 through Aug. 5. Still, the Pigs' Magic Number to clinch the North Division was trimmed to 14 last night. Lehigh Valley owns a 41-22 record since June 3 -- going from 0.5 games back to 9.0 games ahead... The Bats -- Cincinnati's top affiliate -- won their second-straight meeting with the Pigs, but have still dropped four of their last six affairs. Over a longer stretch, the Bats own an impressive 17-7 record since falling to a season low-water mark at 35-55 on July 16.
RHP Harold Arauz (8-6, 5.06 in AA) will start for LHV against LHP Justin Nicolino (5-6, 4.92).
First-Pitch is at 6:30 p.m.
