Wahoos Snap Skid With 14-1 Win Over Generals

May 3, 2014

The Blue Wahoos snapped their three-game losing streak with a 4-1 win over the Jackson Generals on Friday night at the Ballpark at Jackson behind a strong start from Jon Moscot.  The Wahoos hurler allowed just two hits and retired the final 13 batters he faced.

Pensacola scored single runs over four separate innings and got strong pitching from Moscot and the bullpen. Donald Lutz drove home two of the Wahoos runs with RBI singles in the first and fifth innings. He finished the game 2-for-2 with a walk. Rey Navarro also had a solid night at the plate going 3-for-4 with a pair of doubles, an RBI and a run scored. Lutz left the game after the Blue Wahoos batted in the sixth inning. No update is available on his condition.

Moscot earned the win after working 7.0 innings allowing just the 1R/ER on only two hits with a walk and five strikeouts. Elvin Ramirez made his Blue Wahoos debut with a scoreless eighth. James Walczak pitched a perfect ninth for his second save of the year.

The Blue Wahoos will try to make it two-straight over the Generals on Saturday night. RHP Michael Lorenzen (2-1, 1.86) will start for the Wahoos against Jackson LHP Cam Hobson (3-1, 3.14). First pitch is set for 6:05 p.m. at the Ballpark at Jackson.
