TEAM RISP- Iron Pigs: 4 for 13  Fighting Sioux: 3 for 6
 
First baseman Hunter Dozier launched 2 homeruns and had 3 RBI and Justin
Verlander struck out 10 batters as the Lehigh Valley Iron Pigs bested the
Vermont Fighting Sioux 8 to 4 at Fighting Sioux Field.
 
Dozier provided much of the offense.  He delivered a solo blast in the 2nd
inning, popped a two-run clout over the fence in the 3rd inning, laced a
one-base hit in the 5th inning and hit a single in the 9th inning.  Vermont
was out-hit by Lehigh Valley, 16 hits to 6.  
 
The win went to Verlander(2-0) who allowed 4 runs in 8 innings. Brett
Anderson(1-3) was given the loss.  He got hit pretty hard, allowing 11 hits
and 3 walks in 7 innings.  
 
'I had my good stuff today.' Verlander said. 'As the game went along I started
to get the feeling that I was going to strike out a bunch of hitters.'
