It wouldn’t be a night in the Nats organization without the bullpen coughing up a lead or tie right after the offense gave them one. After tying the game at 3-3 in the top of the 8th, Ronald Pena walked two batters to start the bottom of the 8th and then got two outs. Jordan Mills came on to face a lefty and gave up the game-winning, two-run triple to pin the Sens’ 5-3 loss to the Seawolves on Pena. Jaron Long started and pitched into the sixth, giving up the first three runs on seven hits and two walks while fanning four. The Harrisburg offense took advantage of two Erie errors to squeeze three runs out of five hits and two walks. Carter Kieboom and Alec Keller both reached base twice while going 1-for-3 with a walk and a run scored.

Tetreault walked two and gave up five hits over five-plus innings, including three straight singles to load the bases with nobody out in the 6th. Carlos Acevedo kept one of those three runs from scoring to blow the save and then gave up two more runs of his own in the 7th to take the loss.

Jared Johnson also fanned five over the final three to earn the save, his first. Armond Upshaw led the 12-hit parade with three singles while Alejandro Flores homered and scored twice to lead the Hagerstown offense.

Jackson Stoeckinger pitched into the 6th with three runs allowed on five hits, including a solo HR. He walked two and struck out eight. Nector Ramirez got the last out of the 6th and careered through the 7th with three runs let in on three hits and a walk.
