Sussex County, NJ, - The Sussex County Miners fell to the reigning Frontier League champions, the Québec Capitales, with a final score of 5-3 in a rain-soaked contest.

Miners' pitchers Noah Robinson and Bobby Curry made their Miners debuts under challenging conditions. Robinson pitched one inning, allowing one run on four walks, while Curry delivered two solid innings, giving up no earned runs and striking out one. Billy Parsons (0-1) was charged with the loss after allowing two runs over his two innings of work.

Offensively, the Miners were led by Alec Sayre and Cory Acton. Sayre doubled to drive in a run, and Acton contributed an RBI single in the 8th inning, which briefly brought the Miners within a run of the Capitales. Despite their efforts, the Miners managed only six hits against a strong Québec pitching lineup.

Defensively, the Miners committed two errors, contributing to the Capitales' scoring. The team will look to tighten up their play as they move forward in the season.

Overall, despite the loss and adverse weather conditions, the game provided valuable experience for the Miners' young talent. They will seek to rebound in their next matchup on Thursday May 16th, 2024.
