The SeaWolves (2-0) scored eight early runs and coasted to a 10-1 win over Harrisburg (0-2).
Erie plated four first-inning runs with two out. With two out and the bases empty, Max Anderson blasted his first Double-A home run against Senators starter Dustin Saenz, giving Erie a 1-0 lead. Justice Bigbie followed with a single and wound up scoring when Saenz walked the next three hitters, Jake Holton, Ben Malgeri, and Eduardo Valencia. Saenz departed after Valencia's run-scoring walk. Brady Allen faced Miguel Gomez, and his ground ball plated two more runs when Senators shortstop Cortland Lawson made a throwing error, making it 4-0.
In the second inning, Erie put a second-straight four-spot on the board. Carlos Mendoza and Trei Cruz started the frame with singles. Anderson then punched a double to score Mendoza and make it 5-0. Bigbie followed with a three-run homer, giving Erie an early 8-0 lead.
Tigers No. 9 prospect Jaden Hamm cruised through four scoreless innings in his Double-A debut. Hamm allowed one hit and two walks while striking out six in his four frames.
