Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders News Release

ROCHESTER, NY - The Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders held a 5-3 lead entering the bottom of the 7th inning, but the Rochester Red Wings proved resilient with five runs between the 7th and 8th innings to rally for the 8-6 win Monday evening at Frontier Field.

Before a wonderfully packed stadium of 7,903 the Rochester Red Wings plated a pair of unearned runs in the bottom of the 1st inning off starting pitcher Randall Delgado. Rochester did not scratch another run across off Delgado until the bottom of the 6th inning when Wilin Rosario homered to tie it 3-3.

Between those runs, the RailRiders offense put three runs on the board with SWB scoring in the 2nd inning on an RBI double from Tyler Wade to score Mike Tauchman all the way from first base. Later, it was a two-run double by Trey Amburgey in the 6th inning which gave Scranton/Wilkes-Barre a tentative 3-2 lead.

After the Red Wings tied it, the RailRiders cobbled together two runs in the top of the 7th inning, but Rochester's bats were resilient. A two-run home run for Brian Schales in the bottom half of the inning tied it 5-5. An inning later, Jaylin Davis delivered the decisive blow with his go-ahead three-run homer to put the Red Wings ahead 8-5 in the eventual 8-6 victory.

Scranton/Wilkes-Barre and Rochester wrap up its two-game series Tuesday afternoon with a 12:35 p.m. first pitch at Frontier Field. Pregame coverage with Adam Marco and Adam Giardino begins at 12:05 p.m. on the RailRiders Radio Network before returning to PNC Field to play the Buffalo Bisons in a homestand that begins Wednesday night at 7:05 p.m. For tickets and more information, call (570) 969-BALL or slide to www.swbrailriders.com/tickets.
