\ud83d\udcc5 NEXT AT BAT: Baseball all weekend on City Island<\/p>\n

Tonight: vs. Erie SeaWolves, 7:00 PM \u2014 It\u2019s CLEMMEY DAY at FNB Field. LHP Alex Clemmey takes the ball looking to make it three in a row for the Sens. Post game fireworks on City Island. <\/p>\n

Saturday: vs. Erie SeaWolves, 6:00 PM- The Sens will have a yet to be announced opener for Saturday\u2019s game who will likely pitch for one inning then turn the ball over to Kyle Luckham but TBD. <\/p>\n

Sunday: vs. Erie SeaWolves, 1:00 PM – Is there a better way to say Happy Father\u2019s Day to your Dad than to treat him to a ball game (and a hot dog, of course!). Connor Van Scoyoc takes the ball for the Sens in his second appearance of the series. <\/p>\n

\u26be DUGOUT DISPATCH <\/p>\n

The Sens have won 2 in a row and 3 of their last 5. They\u2019re 34-32 with three games left in the first half of the season. The Sens are now \u00bd game back of Akron for second place in the Southwest Divison standings. Sens fans have to be hopeful that this shows the ball club gelling together, getting used to playing along side each other, for a key second half stretch. <\/p>\n

Bullet-point highlights of the day\u2019s key moves, performances, or news. Use bold for names, stats, and teams. Keep it skimmable. For EXAMPLE:<\/p>\n

\ud83d\udcc8 MORNING STAT <\/p>\n

Sens INF Cayden Wallace is 6-13 (.462), 3HR, 2B, 1BB and 3Ks in this week\u2019s series against the SeaWolves. He has hit safely in 4 of his last 5 games. Wallace has also raised his batting average 20 pts in a week. He finished last Friday\u2019s rain shortened loss to Richmond 0-2 and his batting average was .286. After last night\u2019s 3-4 effort he now sits at a team leading .306 which is good enough for 7th overall in the Eastern League.<\/p>\n

\ud83d\udd25 Sens bats get big hits for second game in a row, Cayden Wallace stays scorching and Issac Lyon arrives as Sens slide past Erie. <\/p>\n

Final Score: Senators 3, SeaWolves 1<\/p>\n

\u26be DUGOUT DISPATCH<\/p>\n

Cayden Wallace has essentially put the Senators offense on his back for a majority of the season but especially the last week. He\u2019s hitting for power, he\u2019s getting extra base hits and hard ground balls through the middle for a single. Senators fans are starting to realize so much that the only time Erie record an out on him was a hard line drive right near the left fielder. You knew it wasn\u2019t gone off the bat but that\u2019s what Wallace has done lately. He\u2019s given everybody a reason for that initial yell of excitement when he makes contact because it seems as if every time he does the ball could leave the yard. <\/p>\n

\ud83d\udcca THE BOX SCORE<\/p>\n

Winning Pitcher: Issac Lyon (1\u20133], 6 2\/3IP, 2H, 1R, 1ER, 0BB, 5K 6.14ERA<\/p>\n

Losing Pitcher: Carlos Pena (3\u20133), 5IP, 5H, 3R, 3ER, 0BB, 8K)<\/p>\n

Cayden Wallace: 3-4, HR, RBI<\/p>\n

Leandro Pineda 1-3, 3B, 1R<\/p>\n

Team RISP: 2-4 .500 Sens have another positive night driving in runners in scoring position. We\u2019ve long said it needs to improve for a batter second half and it has over the last few games. <\/p>\n

Errors: No errors by either team in last night\u2019s ball game. <\/p>\n

\ud83c\udf99\ufe0f LOCKER ROOM LORE<\/p>\n

While no direct comments from the players, those that we did see post game underneath the concourse at FNB Field were postive after the 2nd straight win. Smiles, laughter, speaking with families and waving to fans. Positive vibes for the Senators heading into the weekend. <\/p>\n

\ud83d\udcac FAN\u2019S CHOICE<\/p>\n

Who was last night\u2019s MVP?
\u2705 Issac Lyon
\u2705 Cayden Wallace
\u2705 Cortland Lawson<\/p>\n
