3B Tyler Hardman (1-for-2, HR, RBI, R, 2 BB) opened the scoring with a solo jack in the 2nd inning, reaching base three times. Hardman has RBI’s in three straight games and four of his last five. Following up a three-hit game last night, Hardman is 5-for-18 over his last five games with 2 HR, 5 RBI, 5 R, 2 BB, and 2 SB. Hardman’s sixth homer with Somerset this season traveled 416 ft and left the bat at 107 MPH. Since the start of the 2023 season, Hardman’s 32 HR are tied for the most in the Eastern League over that span.
