The Trenton Thunder evened the series with the Senators on Friday night with an 8-1 win. A bundled crowd watched Trenton score four runs in the second and three more in the fourth to make a winner out of Thunder starter George Stoneburner and a loser out of Sens starter Ryan Tatusko. Harrisburg and Trenton are both 3-5 on the season.

Josh Johnson led the game off with a double, but didn't score and Jesus Valdez led the second inning off, but didn't score. The only run the Senators scored was on a sacrifice fly off the bat of Josh Johnson in the fifth inning scoring Bill Rhinehart.

Jimmy Barthmaier, Hassan Pena and Ryan Mattheus combined to pitch the final 4.1 innings and allowed just one hit and no runs. Pena struck out five of the seven batters he faced.

Game three of the series is Saturday afternoon at 5:05 p.m. with RH Luis Atilano on the mound for the Senators against RH Craig Heyer for Trenton. The game can be heard on 1460am The Ticket, on the Internet through the Senators website, and via your iphone or ipad beginning at 4:50 p.m.
