IronPigs, Simmons Pin Bad Loss on Chiefs
The Lehigh Valley IronPigs used the hitting of shortstop Andrelton Simmons to subdue the Syracuse Chiefs, 14-2. For the game, Simmons went 4-5 with 2 home runs and a double. He drove in 6 runs and scored twice. The winning pitcher was Rob Bush. His record now stands at 12-8. The right-hander went 8 innings, allowing 1 run on 6 hits for the IronPigs. The first-place IronPigs, at 63-49, now lead their division by 4 games.

Walt Blair had a big 3-run home run for the IronPigs in the top of the third inning. With Lehigh Valley leading 1-0 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he sized up a curveball from 25-year old right-handed pitcher Tim Kinzer and punished it. The result was his 5th home run of the season, which put the IronPigs on top, 4-0.

"We took a roundhouse punch to the chin," said losing manager Dave Anderson.
