North Shore Spirit News Release
Lynn, MA â Keith Dunn pitched eight innings of two-run baseball as the Quebec Capitales handed the North Shore Spirit their fourth loss in five games Monday night, 5-2 at the New Fraser Field.
Dunn (10-2) scattered five hits and struckout four, while lowering his era to 3.09. Nick Vandegriff (1-1) pitched well early for the Spirit, but suffered the loss after allowing two earned runs on seven hits in four innings.
Quebec broke open a scoreless game in the fifth with three runs. Lee Delfino drove home a pair with an RBI single to center. Quebec's third run came as a result of a Vandegriff throwing error.
In the sixth, Quebec added to their lead. Delfino walked with two down and scored when Olivier Lepine laced a double into the rightfield corner.
Marcos Agramonte made it 4-2 in the eighth with his third homerun of the season, a two-run shot off Dunn.
Alex Santos retired the side in order in the ninth for his league-leading 21st save of the year.
Goefrey Tomlinson finished 2-4 with a run scored. North Shore now trails Quebec by three games in the North Division second half standings.
