The SeaWolves pulled out all the stops, mixing three different starting pitchers to tame the Squirrels in Game 2. However, it reliever Adam Wolf who came up clutch, while Quincy Nieporte landed the big blow, launching a three-run shot that carried the SeaWolves to victory.
Erie built a first inning lead on a pair of walks and a Richmond defensive miscue. With one out in the top of the first, Andrew Navigato and Parker Meadows walked. Nieporte struck out, but a little flare in shallow left field saw Richmond’s third baseman and left fielder converge in confusion as to who was taking charge.
