Norfolk and Bowie were on their respective All-Star breaks, so just three games in this Wednesday night recap.
Myrtle Beach Pelicans 5, Frederick Keys 4
23-year-old righty Lucas Long from Minnesota worked five innings of ball, surrendering just two earned runs with just a walk and nine batters fanned. He still owns a 4.81 ERA on the season, but the nine in the strikeout column is more than encouraging - especially since the runs came on two round-trippers.
The Keys offense put up 10 hits, but couldn’t work on plating the fifth and sixth runs in the ninth.
