Andrew Navigato smacks walkoff homer for Erie

The Hens prevailed after a back and forth contest in 10 innings on Wednesday. Brendon Davis had the game winning RBI off former Tigers’ prospect, Anthony Castro, in the top of the 10th, and a dominant two inning save from Derek Law sealed the victory.

Nivaldo Rodriguez got the start, and pitched in and out of trouble for five innings, getting some nice defense along the way. He allowed eight hits and recorded just one strikeout, but gave up just single runs in the first and fourth innings.

Trayce Thompson put the Hens on the board in the second, tying the game with a leadoff home run, his third.
