The Riversharks beat the Bridgeport Bluefish at Campbell's Field on Tuesday night, but were hoping for more.
That's because the Riversharks and Bluefish were scheduled to play a doubleheader, but had to postpone game 2, due to the continued rain over Camden. Game 2 was pushed back to Wednesday night, when the two teams will again start a scheduled doubleheader at 5:05 PM. Once again, each game will be scheduled for 7 innings. Here is the link to the recap of the game that did finish, and here is a link to an updated schedule.
One more note: the Riversharks beat the Bluefish 5-2 in last night's game, which means that all three of the 'sharks home games have ended in that 5-2 final. On Friday night, the Southern Maryland Blue Crabs beat the 'sharks by that 5-2 score, and then the 'sharks reversed it on Saturday night. Last night, the score was 5-1 heading into the 7th (and final) inning, but closer Tracy Thorpe was nice enough to give up his first run of the season, just to keep the streak alive. Given how lights out he'd been before last night, I have to believe that was his motivation. Anyway, three straight 5-2 finals is pretty interesting. Think it'll happen again on Wednesday night?

Riversharks sign LHP
The Riversharks have signed left-handed pitcher Wayne Franklin, who has previously spent time with five Major League teams (the Astros, Brewers, Giants, Yankees, and Braves). Franklin is the only southpaw on the Riversharks' staff, and fills the roster spot vacated last week, when catcher Manuel Mejia was released. Click here for full career stats on Franklin, courtesy of The Baseball Cube.
And don't forget: we've got a doubleheader tonight, starting at 5:05 PM. It's Cinco de Mayo, so you can bet there'll be a bit of a Mexican flair at Campbell's Field tonight. Tickets are still available; click here for purchase information.
