(York, Pa.) - The Long Island Ducks were defeated by the York Revolution 7-2 on Monday night in the opener of a three-game series at PeoplesBank Park.

Long Island grabbed an early 1-0 lead in the first inning when Fehlandt Lentini scored from third on a double play ball. Two innings later, Lentini again dented home plate on Dan Johnson's two-out RBI double to right field off Revolution starter Micah Owings.

York closed to within 2-1 in the bottom of the third on a leadoff solo homer to left-center by Jason Repko off Ducks starter Jack Snodgrass. The Revolution then tied the game at two in the sixth on Isaias Tejeda's two-out solo homer to left-center.

The Revolution took the lead in the seventh with five runs against Snodgrass. Repko's RBI double, a sac fly off the bat of Josh Wilson, an RBI single by Michael Rockett and Tejeda's two-run double did the damage.

Scott Rice (2-0) earned the win in relief with two scoreless innings, striking out one. Snodgrass (5-5) took the loss, surrendering seven runs on seven hits and two walks with four strikeouts in six and two-thirds innings. Owings did not factor into the decision but lasted five innings, yielding two runs on five hits and two walks while striking out six.

Lentini led the Flock with two hits, two runs and a pair of stolen bases.
