Express Blanked by Stripers, 1-0

HOW IT HAPPENED:

The Stripers broke the tie in the top of the sixth inning. DH Sandy León walked to start the inning and then stole second base. León advanced to third on a single by 3B Luke Williams. SS Jim Jarvis grounded into a double play, scoring León from third to score the lone run of the game and give Gwinnett the 1-0 lead.

The Express were held hitless through the last five innings and could not manage to find the tying run against the Stripers and dropped the final game of the homestand, 1-0.
