Amparo and Liranzo Homer to Carry Delmarva
SALISBURY, MD: The Delmarva Shorebirds (8-12) secured their first series win of the season, defeating the Wilson Warbirds (7-13) 4-1.
Edwin Amparo put the Shorebirds on the board first in the second with a two-run homer, giving Delmarva a 2-0 lead.
The Shorebirds held a 2-0 lead for most of the night, as their pitching staff kept Wilson's offense hitless. The Warbirds broke up the no-hit bid in the seventh on a single by Luis Lameda.
Delmarva added some much-needed insurance in the bottom half of the inning when Joshua Liranzo cranked his second home run of the season, putting the Shorebirds in front 4-0.
With two outs in the top of the ninth, the Warbirds ended the shutout with a solo home run from Jose Anderson, making it 4-1. Adrian Heredia secured the final out for the Shorebirds, giving them their fourth straight win and their first series victory of the season.
Fermin Magallanes (1-0) earned his first win in relief, while Wilson starting pitcher Tyler Renz (1-1) took the loss.
Delmarva will try to close out the series with a fifth consecutive win on Sunday, as Kiefer Lord takes the mound for his second start of the week against Miqueas Mercedes for the Warbirds. First pitch is scheduled for 2:05 PM.
