Akron Wins, 5-4, Over Fightin Phils
The Akron RubberDucks racked up a win at Canal Park, bumping off the Reading Fightin Phils, 5-4. Bobby Harmsen, who started for Akron, pitched effectively for his team. Akron reliever Bryan Harmon picked up the win, upping his record to 1-0. Tom Fetherolf took the loss. The RubberDucks, with just their 4th win so far in 2112, have yet to catch fire.

Had Virgil de Haan not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and runners on 1st and 2nd, de Haan hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 5-4, in favor of the RubberDucks.

"It's so much easier when you throw good pitches," said Harmsen.
