The RailRiders rallied and jumped out in front in the seventh. Ryan LaMarre and Florial delivered back-to-back two-out, run-scoring hits to put Scranton/Wilkes-Barre ahead 3-2. LaMarre finished the day two for three.

The IronPigs took the lead for good in the eighth inning after RBI singles from Bryson Stott and Drew Maggi made it 4-3. Lehigh Valley added five insurance runs in the ninth on two home runs. Braeden Ogle (1-1) earned his first win out of Lehigh Valley’s bullpen. Reggie McClain (0-1) suffered the loss for SWB.
