 Crushers 4 Bolts 1 AVON, OH – In a game that featured only nine hits, but 18 combined walks and three hit batters, the ThunderBolts were unable to capitalize on late baserunners as they fell to the Lake Erie Crushers 4-1. Lake Erie (37-43) got their first run on a first-inning error. A single and a walk put runners at first and second with two outs. An errant pickoff throw from Corey Bass allowed Robb Paller to score from second base. The Crushers added three runs with two outs in the third.

The Bolts loaded the bases on a single and two walks in the sixth but didn’t score. They loaded them again on three straight walks with no outs in the seventh but Manny Arciniega came up with back-to-back strikeouts to pitch out of the jam. The Bolts got on the board in the ninth.
