ERIE 5, BINGHAMTON 4 (Box)

Low-A - Savannah Sand Gnats (40-36 / 2-6)__________________________________

AUGUSTA 5, SAVANNAH 2 (Box)

Despite twelve hits on the evening, Savannah could only drive two runners home in their loss to Augusta, their second in a row. Casey Delgado was solid early on, but let things slip away late. With the score tied 2-2 in the eighth, he uncorked a wild pitch that allowed the runner on third to score. Because his pitch count was still very reasonable, he went back out to start the ninth. After a single, he threw a routine sac bunt ball away, putting two men on with no outs. Both runners scored, adding further unnecessary cushion to Augusta's lead. To make matters worse, a member of the team reportedly tested positive for a drug of abuse, with a suspension pending today.
