Ryan Lobban (0-1) got the ball for Worcester in the 10:05 start and gave up to runs early before settling down. He went five for Worcester striking out three but didn't factor in the decision. Down 2-0, the Tornadoes knotted things up in the fourth with RBI's from Nick Salotti and Heath Keel. The offense went off again in the top of the eighth after Garrett Olson tripled, Chris Colabello walked and Alex Trezza singled off reliever Carter Clements (0-1) all with none out. Salotti's sacrifice fly ended the scoring. Right handed Santiago Ramirez (1-0) came on in the seventh and worked out of trouble to pick up the win. Josef Frias (0-0) tossed a perfect bottom of the eighth to set up another save for Anthony Sullivan. Both pitchers struck out two. SkyHawk catcher Ray Serrano was ejected by home plate umpire Jon DeRosa in the bottom of the eighth for arguing balls and strikes, forcing a musical chairs of substitutions from manager Hal Lanier. Sussex starter Roger Lincoln (1-0) threw seven innings striking out six Tornadoes allowing one earned run.
