Mahoning Valley Scrappers News Release


Niles, Ohio - Mahoning Valley withstood a big first inning from Jamestown and came from behind to beat the Jammers, 4-3 at Eastwood Field.

Jamestown scored three runs in the top of the first inning off starter Harold Guerrero to take a 3-0 lead. But the Scrappers answered with three runs in the bottom of the first, tying the score at 3-3. Mahoning Valley took the lead for good in the fourth on Casey Serna's run-scoring groundout.

Guerrero settled in and picked up the win, throwing 5.0 innings. He allowed just one hit after the first inning, a leadoff single in the third that was erased on the next pitch by a double play. Three relievers combined to shut out the Jammers the rest of the way. Kyle Petter pitched a 1-2-3 ninth inning for his first save of the season.

Outfielder Cody Elliott went 2-for-3 on the night, driving in the tying run in the first inning and pushing the eventual winning run to third base in the fourth inning. The two hits were the first two of his professional career.

Mahoning Valley and Jamestown conclude their three-game series on Sunday at 5:05 pm at Eastwood Field.
