Delmarva Shorebirds News Release


ZEBULON, NC: The Delmarva Shorebirds (15-23) suffered their third-straight loss to the Carolina Mudcats (26-13) on Thursday night as they were defeated, 12-3.

The Shroebirds wasted no time scoring in the first inning as Stiven Acevedo doubled off the top of the wall in right-center to score Enrique Bradfield Jr. from first base, making it 1-0 Delmarva.

But the Mudcats would use a pair of home runs to snatch the lead away as Kay-Lan Nicasia hit a two-run shot with two outs in the second to give Carolina a 2-1 lead. Jace Avina then hit a solo homer to start the third to extend the lead to 3-1 after three.

Noelberth Romero would provide the power swing for Delmarva in the fourth as he belted a solo home run over the wall in left to pull the Shorebirds within one at 3-2.

Delmarva would develop another threat in the top of the fifth as they loaded the bases with one out, but Jeison Peña struck out back-to-back Shorebirds to get through the inning unscathed.

Carolina would then come back with a pair of runs with two outs in the fifth on a two-run double by Jose Sibrian to put the Shorebirds behind 5-2.

Enrique Bradfield would help get one of those runs back as he hit a slow roller in front of home but the throw to first base was low and not fielded cleanly, scoring Brayan Hernandez from third as a result to make it a 5-3 game.

The game would then get out of hand as the Mudcats scored five runs in the bottom of the sixth on three bases-loaded walks and a two-RBI single by Jose Sibrian put the Shorebirds behind by a touchdown at 10-3.

The Mudcats would two more runs in the eighth to cap off a lopsided, 12-3 win over Delmarva.

Jeison Peña (5-2) earned the win in relief for Carolina with Yaqui Rivera (1-5) taking the loss for the Shorebirds.

Delmarva will search for its first win of the series on Friday night as they send Deivy Cruz to the mound against right-hander Will Rudy for the Mudcats with first pitch scheduled for 7:05 p.m.
