RailRiders Edge Louisville in Pitching Duel
Louisville got a big-time effort from pitcher Mel Valdez, but it wasn't enough to keep the Scranton WB RailRiders from winning the game, 1-0. Valdez threw 8.0 innings of 4-hit ball for the losing team. Andy Eason, the winner, improved to 2-1. He held the Bats to no runs on 5 hits over 7.2 innings, while striking out 8 and walking 3. Daisuke Yoshioka earned the save for Scranton WB.

The RailRiders got a big at-bat from center fielder Ed Bradford. For the game, Bradford went 1 for 3 with a home run. In the bottom of the third, with the bases empty, he stroked a solo home run. His 2nd home run of the season gave Scranton WB a 1-0 lead.

"That's baseball," said Louisville manager Isaac Moles. "Sometimes the other team plays better than yours."

The RailRiders have stumbled out of the gate, getting only their 7th win in 22 games.
