The Baysox went 0-for-6 with runners in scoring position on Tuesday and left six on base.
Right-handed starter Trace Bright went four strong frames. Bright (L, 0-9)’s lone blemish was a pair of walks in the fourth inning, followed by an RBI single from Altoona’s Charles McAdoo to open the scoring. The right-hander struck out five with three hits allowed in four frames.
