Asheville, NC: The Hagerstown Suns dropped game one of their eight game road trip, falling to the Asheville Tourists 6-0. Simon Ferrer fired six scoreless innings for his 7th win.

All the offense came from the Tourists; they scored one in the 2nd on a RBI double off the bat of Matt Repac and scored five more in the 5th highlighted by a two single by Daniel Mayora.

Erik Arnesen was saddled with the loss after tossing 4.1 innings, allowing all six runs. Coby Mavroulis, Yunior Novoa and Chris Lugo all pitched well out of the pen for Hagerstown.
