GREENVILLE, SC - Greenville scored twice in the fifth inning and their bullpen threw four scoreless innings as the BlueClaws fall to the Drive 2-1 on Sunday afternoon at Fluor Field.

The teams split their four-game series to start the second half of the season.

Greenville reliever Trevor Kelly threw three shutout innings and Victor Diaz a 1-2-3 ninth inning for his third save, striking out BlueClaws slugger Jose Pujols to end the game.

The BlueClaws fall to 2-2/31-42 while the Drive are now 2-2/39-34 on the year. Lakewood wins the season series from Greenville 5-3.

Both starters, Drew Anderson for Lakewood and Roniel Raudes for Greenville, started sharp and both faced the minimum 12 through the first four innings.

The BlueClaws took the lead in the fifth on a mammoth home run to left-center by Jose Pujols, his league-leading 14th home run of the season. The BlueClaws lead, however, would be short-lived.

Anderson walked the lead-off batter in the bottom of the fifth, and after a Tyler Spoon single, Luis Alexander Basabe doubled in Mitchell Gunsolus to tie the game at 1. Austin Rei followed with a SAC fly that put the Drive up 2-1 after five.

Raudes came out after five innings, allowing one run on three hits with no walks and six strikeouts to improve to 7-2 on the season.

Anderson lasted six innings for the Blueclaws, allowing two runs on four hits, but falling to 1-2 on the year. Skylar Hunter followed Anderson with two scoreless innings in relief.

The BlueClaws head to Hagerstown to open a three-game series with the Suns on Monday night. LHP Tyler Gilbert (4-6) will start the series opener for the BlueClaws.
