The Harrisburg Senators scored five runs in the fourth inning and held on for a 7-5 win over the Portland Sea Dogs in an Eastern League game Saturday night at Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.
Daylen Lile’s two-run single snapped a 2-2 tie in the fourth inning.
Portland’s Phillip Sikes hit his 14th home run of the season – a two-run shot – and Nathan Hickey’s RBI double in the eighth cut Harrisburg’s lead to 6-5. The rally fizzled, though, as the Sea Dogs lost for the eighth time in their 12 games.
Despite the outcome, Portland still has a 2 1/2 game over Somerset in the Northeast Division with 14 games remaining.
