(Lancaster, Pa.) - The Long Island Ducks were defeated by the Lancaster Stormers on Sunday afternoon in the rubber game of a three-game series at Clipper Magazine Stadium.
Long Island's offense was led by Ryan McBroom, who launched a grand slam in the fifth inning as part of a two-hit day. Jackie Bradley Jr. also homered for the Ducks, recording two hits, two runs and two walks.
