Harrisburg Senators News Release


Bowie, MD - The Senators season opening road trip continues to be an offensive struggle as they fell 2-1 to Bowie on Tuesday night. Harrisburg is now 1-5 in the early going having scored one or fewer runs in four of their first six games and only eleven runs altogether.

Another solid effort by the Sens pitching staff was for naught Tuesday. Starter Jeff Mandel went 5.1 innings, allowing two unearned runs on three hits. Relievers Rafael Martin and Adam Carr went the final 2.2 innings and combined to strike out five hitters while not allowing a hit.

The Sens offense managed seven hits but couldn't really come up with the big hit in the game. Bill Rhinehart drove in the only run for the Sens with a two-out single in the fourth inning. Michael Martinez and Rhinehart both had two hits in the game.

Rhinehart doubled with one-out in the ninth, but the Sens couldn't get him driven in to tie the game. Out of the eight runners they left stranded, five were in scoring position.

Zach Britton, a top prospect in the Orioles organization, started and picked up his first win for Bowie. Wlfredo Perez earned his second save in as many chances for the Baysox.

The final game of the road trip and series is Wednesday night at 7:05pm. LH Aaron Thompson takes the hill for the Sens while RH Steve Johnson makes the start for Bowie. The game be heard beginning at 6:50pm on 1460AM The Ticket and through the Senators website.
