Yard Goats Hand Altoona 2-1 Loss
The Hartford Yard Goats downed the Altoona Curve, 2-1, at New Britain Stadium. Stellar pitching by Larry Hardwick had a lot to do with it. The left-hander, who is tied for 10th in the EL with a 3.46 ERA, handcuffed his opponent all game. Hartford reliever Alex Gallargo got the win, raising his record to 1-0. Dean Garvin was tagged with the loss. After today's action, Hartford sits at 54-55; Altoona slips to 67-42.

Kyler Kernan helped out the Hartford cause in the bottom of the fifth inning with a run-scoring single. For the game, the catcher was 1 for 4.

"Felt great, felt really good," said Hardwick.
