The score was 3-1 after five innings. Lefties pitchers gave up just eight hits to the GreyWolves in Wednesday’s game, but they were undone by nine walks and four errors.

Starter Kieran Shaw gave up just one earned run in five innings, but was saddled with the loss due to unearned runs. He struck out seven and walked three.
