RubberDucks Hand Curve 4-3 Loss
Eric Carroll was a major contributor to the 4-3 Akron win over Altoona. The RubberDucks center fielder was 3 for 5 with a home run and 2 singles. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. The winning pitcher was 28-year old right-handed pitcher Nate Brager. He tossed 91 pitches over 6.1 innings, allowing 3 runs on 8 hits. Earning the save was Jeremy Bess. He's now cashed in 4 of 6 save opportunities.

Had Ignacio Zavala not delivered a key base hit in the top of the seventh, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and runners on 2nd and 3rd, Zavala hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 4-3, in favor of the RubberDucks.

"This was a good win," said Carroll.

The RubberDucks now own a record of 44-51.
