Bats fall silent again

AUBURN - The Auburn Doubledays have the best record (13-2) in the New York-Penn League when they score first. Unfortunately for them, Hudson Valley had a monster first inning at Falcon Park on Friday. The Doubledays couldn't get the production that they needed from their offense and lost their second consecutive game, 9-3.

Renegades' left fielder Cody Cipriano blasted a three-run home run in the first inning off of Alan Farina, who was making his professional debut on the mound. Farina lasted just 2-3 of the inning and got the loss, but struck out two batters.

Things only got worse for the Doubledays, who mustered just one hit in the first four innings and seven overall. An error and three hits led to three more scores for Hudson Valley in the third. Stephen Vogt, Michael McCormick and Reid Fronk, who was also making his professional debut, earned RBIs in the inning. Maiko Loyola ripped a two-run triple in the fourth to complete the Renegades' nine-run outing.
