There are some things that you can't make up.

In the top of the first inning, Senators left fielder Michael Daniel hit a foul ball that came back off the roof of the stadium and landed right in a woman's drink. Perfect shot, right into the cup.

Baysox starting pitcher Troy Patton retired the side in order in the first. Harrisburg right fielder Edgardo Baez flied out to right field, before Patton struck out Daniel swinging. Center fielder Elijah Dukes hit a fly ball to deep center field to end the inning. Patton threw 14 pitches (nine strikes).

The Baysox also went down in order during the first inning. Designated hitter Dave Krynzel hit a deep fly ball to right field, but it was caught on the warning track. Bowie left fielder Jonathan Tucker grounded out to third base, and first baseman Brandon Snyder struck out looking.

Patton stayed strong in the top of the second. Harrisburg third baseman Joel Guzman popped out to Baysox second baseman Miguel Abreu, first baseman Matt Whitney struck out looking and designated hitter Luke Montz popped out to Baysox shortstop Robert Valido. Patton threw 16 pitches (13 strikes) in the inning.

The Baysox jumped into the lead in the second inning. After third baseman Mike Costanzo grounded out, second baseman Miguel Abreu hit a solo home run to left field, giving Bowie a 1-0 advantage.
