SALISBURY, MD - Cadyn Grenier's RBI single in the bottom of the ninth scored Adam Hall and handed the BlueClaws their seventh walk-off loss of the season as Delmarva topped Lakewood 3-2 on Monday night.
Lakewood (2-3/31-44) fell to 1-8 against Delmarva (4-1/52-22) with three of the losses in walk-off fashion.
Grenier's hit came off Rafi Gonell (1-1), who had thrown three scoreless innings coming into the ninth for the BlueClaws. Drew Rom (5-1) gave up two runs in four innings of relief to earn the win.
Trailing 2-0, the BlueClaws got a pair of runs in the sixth off Rom. With none out, Carlos De La Cruz singled in Luis Garcia. Abrahan Gutierrez, who moved to third base on the single, later scored on a wild pitch to tie the game.
