Lowell rally falls short in late innings to lose 2-1
LOWELL, MA – The Staten
Island Yankees scored the go-ahead run in the top of the eighth inning and withstood
furious Spinners rallies in final two innings to defeat the Lowell Spinners 2-1
on Monday night on Luis Alicea Three-Ring Binder Night, sponsored by RTN
Federal Credit Union, Pepsi, Sal’s Pizza and AJ Wright.
Despite the loss, the
Spinners remained two games back of Stedler Division leader Oneonta.
The
Yankees took the lead right back in the top of the eighth on an RBI double by
Snyder, and Spinners rallies in the eighth and ninth could not produce any
runs.
Spinners
starter Jordan Craft had an outstanding outing, allowing just an unearned run
on just two hits in six innings with six strikeouts and no walks. Tony Bajoczky
(0-1) took the loss, giving up one run on two hits in two and one-third
innings. Carlos Gonzalez worked out of a bases-loaded jam by inducing two
groundouts in the ninth inning.
Cabreja
and David Marks each had two hits to lead
Just
two games behind the division-leading Oneonta Tigers,
