Crawdads Late Inning Rally Not Enough Against RiverDogs

Hickory, NC- The Crawdads lost to the Charleston RiverDogs Monday afternoon 3-1 in a Memorial Day Matinee to wrap up the homestand.

They added a pair of runs in the third inning after a fielding error by left fielder Austin O'Banion. Tyree Thompson completed five innings, seven hits, one earned run allowed, one walk and three strikeouts.
The 'Dads got a brief rally going in the bottom of the ninth as Justin Jacobs was hit by a pitch and brought around to score on a passed ball and a single by center fielder Bubba Thompson that made the score 3-1.
After a solo homerun and a grand slam yesterday, 'Dads shortstop Ryan Dorow added a double this afternoon.
The 'Dads return to the Frans on Tuesday, June 5^th to begin a six day homestand. The homestand will feature a Grease 40^th Anniversary Celebration on Thursday, and Friday will be Disney Night and Friday Fireworks.
