CLEARWATER, FL – Carter Mathison began the day with a few spectacular defensive plays and a home run, but the Clearwater Threshers (13-12) fell 7-2 to the Bradenton Marauders (11-14) on Friday night at BayCare Ballpark. The Threshers look to even the series when Bradenton returns on Saturday.

After a scoreless first inning, Raider Tello led off the bottom of the second inning with a single to right off Bradenton’s starter Carlos Castillo. With two outs in the frame, Carter Mathison sent the first pitch he saw onto the right field berm for a two-run home run to give the Threshers an early lead. Bradenton got a run back on a solo home run in the third to cut the Threshers’ lead to one run.

Bradenton racked up four runs in the fifth to take the lead 5-2. Their third solo home run of the day came in the top of the sixth, extending Bradenton’s lead to four runs. On a sacrifice fly, the Marauders increased their lead to five runs at 7-2 after the top of the eighth inning. Clearwater didn’t record a hit after the fourth and fell 7-2 in the series opener against Bradenton.
