RED WINGS NOTES

FANTASTIC MR.FOX: Down 2-0 in the bottom of the second Lucius Fox hit a two-run homer off Michael Mariot...the home run was Fox's first since October 1st, 2021...Fox has performed well versus the IronPigs, hitting for the series cycle...his stat line reads 8-for-15 with a 2HR, 3B, 2B and 4 RBI.

SHARP STRIKEOUTS: Sterling Sharp's stuff was good tonight, accumulating seven strikeouts in four innings...the seven K's tied his total for the month of May and were his second most ever in a start (8 SO 7/7/21 v BUF)..five of his seven strikeouts came swinging

FIREWORK FANDOM: In the Wings first firework night of the year, the crowd showed out, the 7,831 fans in attendance was the second highest attendance of the year behind opening day (8,170 v BUF)...our next firework night is Saturday, June 4th v Buffalo.

STILL ON TOP:With tonight's loss the Red Wings drop to 25-15...nearly half of our losses have come at the hands of the Bacon Men going 3-7 versus the IronPigs on the season headed into the weekend...the Wings still hold first place in the IL East, 1.5 games up on Buffalo who beat Syracuse tonight 2-0.

IRONPIGS NOTES

M&M: In tonight's game, Yairo Munoz and Nick Maton went a combined 5-for-9 with a HR, 3 2B, 4 RBI and five runs...Maton's second inning shot went an estimated 440 feet, his fifth of the year...Maton is performing on the road with all five of his home runs coming away from home...Munoz has also been a road warrior, going into tonight's game batting .418 on the road (23-for-55) and just .250 at home (11-for-44).

BE LIKE MIKE:Tonight Michael Mariot went six innings giving up just two runs on a homer to Lucius Fox...Mariot has been dealing in May, including tonight's start he has a 1.89 ERA over 19 innings this month...all of this coming with just 6 strikeouts this month.
