Kinston Indians News Release
Salem took a big, early lead and never let go as the Sox took down the K-Tribe 12-0 Saturday night in Virginia. The 12 runs and 18 hits put up by Salem, were the most giving up by Kinston in a single game this season.
Salem got all over Kinston starter Marty Popham (1-2) early, scoring four runs on five hits in both the first and second innings. With Salem up 8-0, Popham was chased from the game after two innings. All of the runs were earned as Popham gave up ten hits, while walking one and not striking out a batter.
Salem starter Caleb Clay (3-4) was wild but effective, giving up five walks, through four scoreless innings. The K-Tribe managed just three hits on the evening, two of them by Abner Abreu.
The K-Tribe (35-34) will end the first half at Salem on Sunday afternoon with a 4:05pm start. Joe Gardner will take the mound for the Indians. The Kinston Indians will have Monday through Wednesday off for the All-Star Break and then return to Historic Grainger Stadium for a six game homestand June 24th - 29th!
