The Chesapeake Baysox<\/a>, the Double-A affiliate of the Baltimore Orioles, cruised to a Friday night win against the Erie SeaWolves, the Double-A affiliate of the Detroit Tigers, by a 11-6 final.<\/p>\n

The Baysox<\/a> (4-3), playing as the Oyster Catchers for the first time in 2026, jumped on Erie starter Kenny Serwa (L, 0-2) with a five-run second inning. Aron Estrada, who delivered the walk-off hit in Thursday\u2019s win, led off the inning with a solo shot to right field for his first home run of the season.<\/p>\n

Chesapeake went on to tally five hits and send 10 men to the plate in the inning.\u00a0Tavian Josenberger\u00a0added a two-run single, and\u00a0Frederick Bencosme\u00a0also singled home a run.\u00a0Maverick Handley\u00a0would tack on a sacrifice fly later in the frame.<\/p>\n

Bencosme\u2019s second RBI of the night came on a sacrifice fly in the next inning. Meanwhile, left-handed starter\u00a0Luis De Le\u00f3n\u00a0enjoyed a solid start on the mound, De Le\u00f3n, pitched to nine ground ball outs through five-plus innings with five strikeouts. He allowed a run on a groundout in the third an error in the fourth, before being lifted after walking the leadoff hitter in the sixth.<\/p>\n

Erie\u2019s Justice Bigbie tacked on a two-run double in the top of the sixth to make it a 6-4 game, with the first run charged to De Le\u00f3n (W, 1-1). The second run was the only surrendered in two frames of relief by right-hander\u00a0Daniel Lloyd.<\/p>\n

The Baysox<\/a> cushioned their lead in the bottom of the seventh.\u00a0Ethan Anderson\u00a0singled home a run with two outs, as part of his first three-hit game at Double-A. An error extended the frame to\u00a0Carter Young, who walloped a three-run homer to put the game out of reach. Young\u2019s first homer of the season made it a 10-4 game.<\/p>\n

The final Chesapeake run of the night was plated by\u00a0Thomas Sosa\u00a0on a single in the eighth, as part of a multi-hit night. Seven Baysox players picked up a hit on Friday and eight reached base.<\/p>\n

A late two-run homer from the SeaWolves in the ninth was not enough. Chesapeake claimed their second-consecutive win and third in the last four games.<\/p>\n

The Baysox look to take the series from the SeaWolves on Saturday night, with right-hander Christian Herberholz set to take the ball for Chesapeake, opposite of left-hander Carlos Pe\u00f1a for Erie. First pitch is set for 6:35 p.m. ET at Prince George\u2019s Stadium.<\/p>\n
