INDIANAPOLIS, IN (June 27, 2026) – The Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders were walked off 4-3 by the Indianapolis Indians on Saturday night at Victory Field. Marco Luciano homered twice, but the Indians scored three in the bottom of the ninth to steal the win.

After a one-hour and 13-minute rain delay, Luciano led off the game with a solo home run to right. The 396-foot drive down the left field line was his second of the season with the RailRiders.

Indy leveled the game with a sac fly in the bottom of the seventh.

With two down in the top of the eighth, Luciano’s second homer of the night gave the RailRiders a 3-1 lead.

In the bottom of the ninth, Jhostynxon Garcia and Jesus Castillo each reached on one-out singles, and Nick Cimillo walked to load the bases. Shawn Ross’s two-run single tied the game. After a single by Dominic Fletcher reloaded the bases, Termarr Johnson worked a five-pitch walk to bring in pinch runner Mike Jarvis for the 4-3 win.

Beck struck out five over seven innings with one walk in the no-decision.

Eric Reyzelmann (0-1) took the loss after allowing all three ninth-inning runs. Beau Burrows (4-1) earned the win.
