After having so many storybook come from behind wins this season, the Blue Crabs are given a taste of their own medicine as Newark came from behind to give the Crabs their second straight loss.
New Comer Mike O'Conner pitched in his second game going 6 innings for a no decision. He allowed 4 runs all earned on 6 hits and two walks. He also struck out 2. Paul Estrada and Matt Schweitzer both pitched scoreless innings of relief, Paul's being the 7th and Matt's in the 8th. Matt did however allow a hit but also struck out one. Derrick Ellison suffered his first loss of the season allowing the game-winning run, after securing only one out in the 9th. He allowed two hits while striking out and walking no one.
The Blue Crabs got out to an early lead, on a solo shot Home run by Patrick Osborn in the first. In the second with the bases load Richard Giannotti hit a two run single scoring Ken Harvey and Jeremy Owens. Our final bout of offense came in the third where Michael Tucker doubled to score James Shanks. Our bats all but went flat, as the Bears bullpen combined to No-hit us through the final five innings of the game. The Bears who have the worst ranked pitching staff in the league, found two newcomers that can get the job done from the bullpen.
