Three-Run Second Helps Richmond Top Bowie

A three-run second inning gave Richmond a big early lead, and the Flying Squirrels rolled to a 4-2 victory over the Baysox Wednesday night.

Richmond finished the game with eight singles and no extra base hits, but a bunch of second-inning hits put the Baysox in a 3-0 hole. Bowie got one back in the third on a Robbie Widlansky single and another in the fifth on a Caleb Joseph ground-out.

But the Baysox couldn't get anything else as Richmond added an insurance run later.

Zach Clark (4-2) had his good moments and bad in five innings. He gave up three runs on six hits, but struck out seven. Bowie went 1-for-6 with runners in scoring position while Richmond did much better, finishing 4-for-5.
