Austin Riley had another big day at the plate but it wasn’t enough for the Stripers to take this one and they fell in extra innings. Danny Santana, who has been hot at the plate with a 7 game hitting streak and a .986 OPS in May, doubled with one out in the first inning. Riley knocked him in with a base hit up the middle, giving Gwinnett the lead.
