DUCKS resPOND WITH WIN OVER ‘FISH
Bryan Edwards could not lead the ‘Fish to another victory as the Ducks overtake Bridgeport 7-5. This brings the Long Island Ducks back within one-half game of the Division top.
The first few innings looked dismal for the Bluefish as the Ducks took an early six run lead in the top of the 3rd. Ray Navarrete (2-4, 2 RBIs) was responsible for three of those runs, as a single up the middle with bases loaded scored two, and he later scored himself on a wild pitch. Ex-Bluefish P.J. Rose and Damian Rolls also crossed the plate during the barrage.
The ‘Fish showed some life in the bottom of the 3rd, as Caligiuri scored while the Ducks turned two and hot-hitting Tommy Rojas (2-5, RBI) plated Shaun Boyd. Bobby Malek, Jesse Hoorelbeke, and Shaun Boyd all scored in the fourth to bring the Park City Nine within one run. The ‘Fish had a chance to shine in the fifth, however they were shut down leaving bases loaded, and it was downhill from there.
John Riedling (4-1) picks up the win for the Ducks despite allowing five runs across the plate, and the pen took care of the rest. Danny Graves picks up his 10th save of the season.
The last game of the series will be played at the Ballpark tomorrow. The game will start at 7:05 P.M. Thirsty Thursday will include half-priced beer, soda, and popcorn. After tomorrow’s game the Bluefish will not be in town again until Thursday, June 21st, when they will be playing the Road Warriors.
