Erie’s Jon Link baffled Harrisburg for nine innings while Ryan Perry served up a walkoff HR as the Seawolves edged the Senators, 2-1. Starter Nathan Karns struck out nine and gave up a run on three hits and two walks but needed 104 pitches to get through six innings.

Deion Williams was lit up again, charged with five runs on six hits and three walks over three and 2/3rds for his fourth loss in five starts.
