Allentown, Pennsylvania (June 6, 2026) – The Lehigh Valley Squonk (29-33) captured a second-straight win over the Rochester Red Wings (37-24) thanks to dynamite pitching and timely hitting Saturday night at Coca-Cola Park.

The Squonk broke a scoreless deadlock in the fourth when Carter Kieboom legged out an RBI infield single and then added two more on in the fifth when Bryan De La Cruz drove in a pair with a base hit.

Rochester cut it to a one-run game in the sixth on a Yohandy Morales two-run homer, but Lou Trivino (S, 2) locked down the win, stranding the bases loaded in the final frame with a strikeout of Christian Franklin to end things.

Alan Rangel (W, 3-4) carried the water for the Squonk pitching, striking out a season-high eight and allowing just one run over six innings en route to the win.

Andry Lara (L, 2-3) took the loss for the Red Wings, allowing all three Squonk runs.

The Squonk and Red Wings wrap up their series on Sunday, June 7th at Coca-Cola Park with first pitch slated for 1:15 p.m. Drake Fellows gets the ball for the ‘Pigs against Carson Palmquist for the Red Wings.
