Two triples scorched by Pit Spitters shortstop Camden Traficante (Embry Riddle Aeronautical) and third basemen Glen Miller (Eastern Michigan) helped score the first two runs of the inning. Then a two RBI double peppered by Catcher Tyler Minnick (Georgia Tech) scored both Colin and Brendan Summerhill which gave the Pit Spitters a 6-2 lead. In the top of the eighth, another double from Glenn Miller added more insurance to the Pit Spitters lead and eventually put the game away. With the victory, the Pit Spitters have swept the Dock Spiders in the season series. \u00a0The two positives for the Dock Spiders on the night were the performances turned in by starting pitcher Mason Weckler (Wisconsin-Stevens Point) and catcher Lorenzo Rios (Presbyterian College). In his first start of the season, Weckler hurled six innings of two run ball and racked up seven strikeouts which helped bring his ERA down from 7.50 to 5.25 for the season.<\/p>\n<p>Lorenzo Rios went 2-2 off of two doubles and scored the only two runs for the Dock Spiders. Rios\u2019s contribution wasn\u2019t enough down the stretch as the Pit Spitters bullpen shut down the Dock Spiders offense. Pit Spitters reliever Hayden Brown (Jamestown) was credited with the win, while Dock Spiders reliever Jack Zupfer (St. Thomas) was tagged with the loss. The Dock Spiders dropped to 14-25 on the season and 1-3 in the second half. The Dock Spiders will be back in action Saturday night as they take on the Green Bay Rockers.
