Alec Asher got the nod and didn’t disappoint for Norfolk, allowing just one run over five innings of work. Logan Verrett tossed 1.2 scoreless innings after him, as did Richard Rodriguez, whose ERA is at 2.74 this season with the Tides.
DH Chris Johnson went 3-4 including a home run, double and three RBI. Pedro Alvarez and Sharlon Schoop doubled while Luis Sardinas had the game’s only other multi-hit game with a pair of singles.
Bowie Baysox 3, Hartford Yard Goats 2
Nobody in this game scored after the top of the third inning, so if you arrived late to this game, you were treated to a quick pitchers’ duel to say the least.
