Bowie downs Reading to force 5th game of ELCS

The Reading Fightins could not overcome an early deficit and dropped game 4 of the Eastern League Championship Series to the Bowie Baysox by a score of 9-1.

Bowie scored three runs led by a Garabez Rosa tw0-run double off of Reading starting pitcher Ben Lively in the bottom of the opening frame to jump out to a 3-0 lead.

Reading scored their only run in the 4th inning, when outfielder Cam Perkins came home on a wild pitch.

The Baysox would clap back in the bottom of the 5th inning, with a run-scoring single by first baseman Trey Mancini.
