The Tides gave this one away early. Pawtucket scored three in the first, and two more in the second to obtain the early advantage. Tides starter Tim Melville allowed six hits and walked three in three innings. Melville, who did not allow more than two runs in any of his four April starts, has come back down to earth in the month of May. His ERA now sits at 4.17, but he still holds a 5-2 record.
Drew Dosch went 2-4 and was the only Norfolk player to record a multi-hit game.
