Senators Take Suspended Game 8-2

The Harrisburg Senators knocked off the Bowie Baysox 8-2 as the teams finished Monday's suspended series opener. The Senators led 6-0 before the game was suspended Monday night and the club completed the win when the game resumed Tuesday.

Prior to the game's suspension, the Senators struck for four runs in the first inning against Bowie starter Michael Kelly. With two runners on base on a walk and a single, Juan Soto hit an RBI single to left. After another walk loaded the bases, Taylor Gushue took a walk which forced in a run. Kelly was removed from the game for reliever Luis Isla. With the bases still loaded, Zach Collier drove in a pair with a single to center to put the Senators ahead 4-0. 
Kelly (0-3) took the loss after being charged with all four runs without recording an out in the first.
 
Osvaldo Abreu knocked a two-RBI double in the top of the third to give the Senators a 6-0 advantage. 
Senators starter Jefry Rodriguez allowed just one hit and retired six of the seven Baysox batters through the first two innings.
The game was suspended at the beginning of the bottom of the third inning on Monday night. 
Austen Williams (1-1) pitched in relief once the game resumed on Tuesday night, and the right-hander worked four innings of one-run ball while striking out six. 
The Senators expanded the lead in the fifth when Drew Ward launched his second home run of the season. 
Bowie scored their first run in the bottom of the fifth on an RBI single from Anthony Santander.
Gushue plated the Senators' final run with a solo home run in the seventh, his second of the season as the club took an 8-1 lead. 
Martin Cervenka led off the seventh with a solo home run, however that was as close as the Baysox would get as the Senators took the series opener 8-2.
