After winning the first game of the double header, the Patriots had their season-high win streak of five games snapped in game two.
Somerset is now 6-2 in eight games vs. Harrisburg this season.

CF Brandon Lockridge (3-for-3, RBI, BB, R, 2 SB) scored the game-winning run in the top of the sixth inning of the first game. After a single by Tyler Hardman with the score tied at 2-2, Lockridge pinch-ran, stole second and came home on an RBI single by T.J. Rumfield.
In the second game of the double header, Lockridge started in center field, going 3-for-3 with a walk, an RBI and two triples. Lockridge is the first Patriot to triple twice in a game this season.
