Grasshoppers Over BlueClaws, 4-1
The Greensboro Grasshoppers ushered in the 2026 season with a win versus the Lakewood BlueClaws at NewBridge Bank Park. The final score was 4-1. Starting Pitcher Eric Comerford had a standout performance. Comerford, the winner, moves to 1-0. He threw 6 innings of 4-hit ball, while fanning 7 and giving up no walks.

Huang-fu Chang helped out the Greensboro cause in the bottom of the third inning with a run-scoring walk. For the game, the third baseman drew 2 walks in 4 plate appearances.

"The only difference is executing pitches and not executing pitches," said Comerford. "When you don't execute, you get beat. When you execute, you usually give your team a chance to win."
