The Lakewood Blueclaws scored early and often in their 9-8 win after being shutout by Hagerstown. They scored all nine of their runs between the second and fourth innings, aided by zero home runs and only two hitters having a multi-hit game.

Brendon Hayden, Wilson Garcia, Jan Hernandez, and Jiandido Tromp each had a double and combined for all five of Lakewood’s RBIs.

Garcia had the best night, going 3-5 with a double.

Hagerstown’s pitching got zero help from their defense as they allowed two errors in the infield, which allowed the other four unearned runs to cross the plate for Lakewood.

Luke Leftwich earned his fourth win of the year for Lakewood as he went five innings and allowed five runs (four earned), five hits, three walks and managed four strikeouts.

Jacob Waguespack earned his first save of the year after going two and two-thirds innings and striking out three.
