Richardson, Fives Shut Down Lumberjacks as Dragons Roll, 6-2

Colin Richardson and Kyle Fives combined for 13 strikeouts and one earned run as the Dragons handled the Boonville Lumberjacks 6-2 at East Field on Monday. Taye Robinson went 3-for-3 with two runs scored, the bullpen slammed the door with three hitless innings, and the win improved Glens Falls to 13-19 on the season.

Boonville struck first when Davonn Abaga doubled home Kanious Davis in the top of the first. The Dragons flipped it in the third — Rene Vega scored on a passed ball to tie it, and Tyler McKillop's sacrifice fly plated Giorgio Pantepinto for a 2-1 edge. Billy Barthel's RBI single scored Robinson in the fourth, and after a Boonville run crossed on a passed ball in the sixth, Glens Falls pulled away in the seventh: McKillop's second sac fly brought in Vega before Anthony Lino ripped a two-run double to center, scoring Robinson and Tyler Worth for the 6-2 final. McKillop drove in two, Vega walked twice and scored twice, and the Dragons drew nine free passes on the night.

Richardson earned the win with six innings of one-run ball, scattering five hits and fanning seven. Fives locked down the save with three hitless frames and six strikeouts. The Dragons hit the road Tuesday to face the Saugerties Stallions.
