The RailRiders extended the lead in the top of the fourth on a run-scoring ground out by Ronaldo Hernandez. The IronPigs countered that run in the home half of the inning with a solo home run by Payton Henry.
Henry homered again in the fifth; a two-run shot to tie the game at three. In the sixth, Otto Kemp’s two-run home run gave Lehigh Valley its first lead of the year.
Scranton/Wilkes-Barre left runner aboard in the seventh inning and tacked on one run in the top half of the eighth with a Hernandez sac fly, the deficit to 5-4. The RailRiders, however, left the bases loaded in the eighth and could not complete the comeback.
Brandon Leibrandt made the start for Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, allowing one run on four hits over four innings. Eric Reyzelman (0-1) took the loss after surrendering the Kemp home run. Joel Kuhnel (1-0) notched the win for Lehigh Valley with two innings of relief work and Max Lazar pitched a scoreless ninth for the save.
Ismael Munguia paced the RailRiders with three hits in his Scranton/Wilkes-Barre debut. Rumfield added a pair of hits and all nine hitters in the starting lineup either reached base or drove in a run.
