The Reading Phillies won game one of their series with Richmond winning game one by a score of 7-3.

Vance Worley pitched well getting his third win of the season. He surrendered three runs in the first, but nothing else during the remainder of his outing. He would go on to pitch seven strong innings giving up six hits, striking out four, walking three. Four of the six hits he gave up came in the first inning.

Matt German and Michael Schwimer pitched an inning each of scoreless relief to end the game.

The Reading Phillies started their scoring getting two runs in the second inning on RBI singles by Ozzie Chavez and Freddy Galvis. After holding Richmond scoreless in their top of the third, the offense went back to work exploding for four runs. Domonic Brown, Matt Rizzotti, Kevin Nelson all had RBI hits in the inning.

The other run scored on an error on a fielder’s choice grounder by Ozzie Chavez. Chavez also supplied the final run of the night with an RBI single in the eighth to cap the scoring for the night.
