"Struggles with runners in scoring position ultimately did the Stripers in as they went 2-for-9 in the situation, and stranded 11 on base while picking up their 84th loss of the season. In what was setup to be a bullpen game, Brian Moran (3IP 2H 2ER 0BB 4K) was one of six pitchers used by the Stripers in the game. He pitched relatively well in his two inning stint, but yielded a two run homer in the first, after quickly recording two outs."
"After a 1-2-3 inning by Brian Moran in the third, the Stripers turned to Austin Cox (1IP 1H 1R 0ER 0BB 0K) who was the victim of some mistakes - giving up a lead off single, moving the runner over to third on a wild pitch + throwing error combination with the catcher. With one out and a runner on third, Austin would surrender a sacrifice fly to give the Indians the lead again at 3-2, a lead they would not relinquish."
