Brooks Brown improved to 3-1 with an awesome start in the SeaWolves 4-0 win over Bowie.  He didn’t give up a hit in five shutout innings.  Ramon Garcia pitched four shutout innings to close out the game and he picked up his first save of the season.

Justin Henry went three for four with two doubles, a walk and a run.  Michael Bertram went two for three with a walk, a double and a run.

The SeaWolves never had the lead in their contest with Trenton until the final at bat of the game when Max St. Pierre put a two run homer over the fence to give Erie a big 4-3 win.  Not too shabby from a career minor league catcher who’s struggled this season.  Cesar Nicolas had a nice game and he went two for four with two doubles and a run.

Duane Below had a solid start and he gave up a run on two hits with four strikeouts in five innings.  Brendan Wise improved to 1-0 with two innings of shutout relief.  Wise has been impressive this year.  He’s held the opposition to a .133 batting average and he’s gotten almost 2.5 groundball outs for every flyball.  This has all resulted in a 0.66 ERA on the season.
