Daredevils defeat Greenbrier Knights 9-4 On Tuesday, Improve To 5-1 On Season

June 16, 2015 – Kill Devil Hills, NC

Entering fresh off an 8-4 Monday night (6/15) loss to the Tidewater Drillers that ended their perfect 4-0 start to the season, the Outer Banks Daredevils came out aggressive less than 24 hours later as they jumped on the Greenbrier Knights early and often in the first three frames of play.

After posting two runs in the home half of the first inning to answer Greenbrier’s opening solo score, Outer Banks’ Chris Childress delivered a three-RBI shot to left field in the bottom of the second that also brought home Chase James and Logan Quimuyog.

The 5-1 advantage after three full frames of action afforded the Daredevils some breathing room that lasted until the sixth inning when Greenbrier’s Robbie Lathrop scored for the Knights off an Outer Banks wild pitch that narrowed the contest to a four-run affair (6-2).

The lead for the ‘Devils would only be trimmed by two the rest of the way as Outer Banks coasted to a 9-4 victory to improve to 5-1 on the year while dropping Greenbrier to 0-3.

LHP Colton Harlow (1-0, 2.07 ERA) picked up the win for the Daredevils as he threw six strikeouts while allowing just three hits and one run in four near-perfect innings of mound work.

Play for the Daredevils resumes on Thursday night (6/18) at PNC Park as Outer Banks hosts the Mid Atlantic Pirates (0-1). Gates open at 6 PM with the first pitch to follow at 7:05 PM.

Daredevils Suffer First 2015 Defeat In Monday’s 8-4 Loss To Tidewater Drillers

June 15, 2015 – Kill Devil Hills, NC

By Corey Hodges

Last season, the Tidewater Drillers topped perennial Tidewater Summer League foe Outer Banks in a best-of-three championship series that handed the Drillers their first TWSL title.

Ever since that time, the Outer Banks Daredevils have been anxiously awaiting the chance(s) to once again matchup with Tidewater and return the 2014 favor.

After besting the Drillers last Tuesday night (3-1 victory), the Daredevils returned to PNC Park in Kill Devil Hills on Monday for the second meeting of the season between a club they now know all too well.

Unlike last week’s defensive-fueled victory, however, Monday evening’s clash saw Tidewater return to old form and once again announce that the road to the Postove Cup will run through the Drillers.

Despite allowing just six combined runs in last week’s three games at PNC Park, the Outer Banks Daredevils struggled defensively on Monday against Tidewater as the visitors chalked up four of their eventual eight runs in the top of the third inning and padded their cushion with two more runs added in the fifth frame.

Outer Banks was able to respond in the bottom of the fifth as a combination of Brent West and Ryan Creps soared home on a two-bag RBI by Taylor Turner.

Unfortunately for the Daredevils (4-1), who were looking to remain perfect on the 2015 calendar, a second two-spot in the bottom of the ninth from Monday’s dynamic duo of West and Creps wasn’t enough to overcome back-to-back Tidewater scores in the sixth and seventh innings as the Drillers (1-1) rolled to an 8-4 victory.

Outer Banks hosts the Greenbrier Knights (0-2) on Tuesday at 7:05 (gates open at 6 PM).
