The Seawolves finally got to make up their games as they split a doubleheader with Harrisburg.  In the first game, Erie used the long ball in a 9-6 win.  Ryan Strieby hit his sixth and seventh home runs and he drove in four while Scott Sizemore and Santo De Leon both hit one home run a piece.  Alfredo Figaro was touched up for five runs in 5 2/3 innings while Josh Kite picked up the win despite allowing the tying run (an inherited runner) to score).

Game two didn’t go quite as well as Erie blew a 6-0 lead and lost 7-6.  Scott Sizemore hit another home run and Cale Iorg hit two solo shots (his first two of the season).  Ramon Garcia pitched three shutout frames in his start before Zach Simons came in and gave up five runs.

The SeaWolves had their previous two games rained out and last night, they got in one of their two.  Unfortunately, they were held to five hits in a 2-0 loss to Harrisburg.  Brennan Boesch was the hitting star and he went two for two with a walk.

A pretty good start by Jon Kibler went to waste.  He gave up two runs (both unearned) on three hits and four walks with three strikeouts in six innings.
