Harrisburg Senators News Release
The Harrisburg Senators earned a 3-1 victory on Sunday afternoon at FNB Field in a game dominated by strong pitching and steady defense. Riley Cornelio tossed six scoreless innings before handing the ball to the bullpen, while the Senators offense did just enough to secure the win.
Delino DeShields sparked Harrisburg's offense in the third with a single and came around to score the game's first run on his second hit of the day in the fourth. Carlos De La Cruz added an RBI single in the fifth, and Joe Naranjo padded the lead in the seventh with an RBI knock to right.
