-SPIKES HIT THE ROAD FOR SIX: The State College Spikes start a three-game series against the Jamestown Jammers tonight at Russell Diethrick Park, and begin a six-game road trip as well. State College is 21-29 all-time against the Jammers, including a 10-15 record at Jamestown. The Spikes will have only one other road trip this season that lasts as long as six games.

-LAST GAME: 2010 fourth-round draft pick Nick Kingham notched eight of the State College Spikes' 13 strikeouts as a team in the longest outing for any State College pitcher this year, but the Spikes fell to the Auburn Doubledays at Medlar Field at Lubrano Park, 5-0, on Wednedsay night. Kingham's strikeout total also ended up just one shy of the Spikes (1-5) record of nine, held by 2009 southpaw Nelson Pereira. The Spikes' team strikeout total also ended up just one shy of the franchise record of 14, set on August 26, 2006 against the Doubledays.

-HAFNER MAKES SECOND SPIKES START: Right-hander Ryan Hafner gets the ball for State College this evening. In the first start of his pro career this past Saturday, Hafner pitched a strong four innings against Williamsport, shutting out the Crosscutters on three hits and hitting one batter. The Lee's Summit, MO native also struck out a pair of hitters. Hafner was selected in the 17th round of the 2010 MLB Draft by the Pirates, and made two appearances for the Gulf Coast League Pirates last year.

-JAMMERS GO WITH URENA: Jamestown will send right-hander Jose Urena to the hill tonight in game one of the series. Urena took the loss in his last outing, giving up four runs on six hits and two walks while striking out two in a starting role. The Dominican spent two years with the Marlins affiliate in his homeland, notching a 2.61 ERA in 2010.
