Crabs Pinch Ducks, 10-2
By Atlantic League Independent Wire Services on May 27, 2009
Central Islip, N.Y. – The Southern Maryland Blue Crabs defeated the Long Island Ducks 10-2 on Tuesday at Citibank Park.
The Blue Crabs belted 16 hits, including five home runs en route to their fifth win in eight games against the Flock this season. Ducks’ starter Brad Halsey (1-3) suffered the loss as he tossed three and one-third innings, allowing six earned runs and 11 hits, while striking out one. Back-to-back dingers in the second inning by Jeremy Owens and Lance Burkhart highlighted the four-run frame. The Crabs added two more in the third, including Burkhart’s second long ball in as many innings.
A three-run seventh against Ducks’ reliever Mike Hrynio broke the game wide open as the Crabs used homers by Jermy Acey and Mike Just to cement the contest.
Kenny Baugh (1-1) picked up the win firing six innings, yielding two runs and eight hits, with seven punch outs. The Crabs’ bullpen did the job as Mike James, Jim Serrano and Matt Schweitzer combined for three shutout innings of relief.
Offensively for the Flock, Estee Harris, Gabe Suarez and Johnny Hernandez each chipped in with a multi-hit game, with Suarez picking up his first three-hit performance of the season.
