The Chesapeake Baysox<\/a>, the Double-A affiliate of the Baltimore Orioles, dropped a Wednesday night contest to the Erie SeaWolves, the Double-A affiliate of the Detroit Tigers, by a 13-8 final in a back-and-forth affair.<\/p>\n

The Baysox<\/a> (2-3) built a 7-1 lead in the opening two innings of the game. In the first, Chesapeake strung together four-consecutive base runners with two outs and three-consecutive hits, including an RBI double from\u00a0Anderson De Los Santos\u00a0and a two-run triple from\u00a0Doug Hodo\u00a0to build a 3-0 edge.<\/p>\n

After the SeaWolves got a run back on a fielder\u2019s choice in the top of the second, the Baysox<\/a> responded with a pair of first-career Double-A homers.\u00a0Griff O\u2019Ferrall\u00a0hit a two-run shot, before De Los Santos followed suit for his second and third RBI of the night, extending the lead to a six-run cushion. De Los Santos would single later in the evening and reach base a career-high five times after a pair of walks.<\/p>\n

However, Erie would score 12 of the game\u2019s final 13 runs on Wednesday. The SeaWolves flipped the script with a six-run fifth inning. After working comfortably through the first four frames, right-handed starter\u00a0Trace Bright\u00a0walked a pair of batters before a three-run home run from Seth Stephenson that ended Bright\u2019s night. Left hander\u00a0Eric Torres\u00a0entered out of the Baysox bullpen. Torres hit a pair of batters and allowed a single to load the bases. A wild pitch and groundout brought home a pair of runs, before a Justice Bigbie single tied the game at seven.<\/p>\n

Erie took the lead in the sixth. An infield hit and a hit by pitch against right-hander\u00a0Tyson Neighbors\u00a0(L, 0-1) proved costly, as on a double-steal, catcher\u00a0Adam Retzbach\u00a0committed a throwing error, sailing his throw into left field and bringing home the game\u2019s go-ahead run. The SeaWolves tacked on with a pair of homers in a four-run seventh and tacked on one more in the eighth. Baysox bats were mostly held in check by the Erie bullpen on Wednesday night, with right-hander Colin Fields (W, 1-0) contributing two and two-thirds innings of one-hit, shutout baseball. Chesapeake\u2019s only other run of the game came in the seventh on a\u00a0Fernando Peguero\u00a0groundout.<\/p>\n

Retzbach picked up a pair of hits and\u00a0Carter Young\u00a0reached base four times on three walks and a hit in the defeat.<\/p>\n

The Baysox have split the first two games of this six-game series with the SeaWolves. The two sides continue the series on Thursday morning at 11:05 a.m. ET at Prince George\u2019s Stadium. Right-hander Evan Yates makes his Double-A debut for Chesapeake, while left-hander Joe Miller counters for Erie.<\/p>\n
