Lehigh Valley IronPigs News Release


Buffalo, N.Y. -A four-hit game from Scott Kingery was not enough as the Lehigh Valley IronPigs (63-69, 29-30) fell by a run to the Buffalo Bisons (62-73, 25-36), 5-4, on Saturday afternoon at Sahlen Field.

The IronPigs loaded the bases to start the ballgame, but got just run out of it on a run-scoring double play off the bat of Jim Haley.

Marcus Lee Sang singled to open the third and then moved to second on a balk. A Darick Hall single pushed him to third before Haley drove him in with a fielder's choice.

Buffalo took the lead with a three-run third. Following a leadoff walk, back-to-back bunt singles loaded the bases. Alan Roden tied the game with a two-run single before Josh Kasevich gave Buffalo the lead with an RBI knock.

Steward Berroa made it 5-2 Buffalo with a two-run homer in the fourth, his 10th of the season.

Haley picked up his second RBI of the day on a sacrifice fly, driving in Lee Sang again, in the fifth, before a Darick Hall RBI single in the seventh made it a one-run game.

Kingery collected his fourth hit of the day in the ninth, a double, but was stranded at second as the tying run to end the game.

James Kaprielian (2-4) earned the win for the Bisons, allowing three runs in five innings on six hits and four walks, striking out four.

Robinson Pina (1-3) suffered the loss for the 'Pigs, allowing five runs in four-plus innings on nine hits and three walks, striking out three.

Hagen Danner (S, 6) worked around Kingery's double to post a scoreless ninth for the save.

The IronPigs and Bisons wrap up their series on Sunday, September 8th with first pitch slated for 11:05 a.m. at Sahlen Field. Tyler Phillips (7-4, 5.27) goes for the 'Pigs while Buffalo rolls with Trenton Wallace (0-2, 6.17).
