(Lancaster, Penn., July 6, 2012)
– The Long Island Ducks were defeated by the Lancaster Barnstormers 13-1 on Friday night in the second game of a four-game series.  

 
Lancaster jumped out in front with a run in the first and three runs in the second off Ducks starter Dan Meyer. A RBI single by Terry Tiffee, a run-scoring wild pitch, a RBI single by Blake Galien, and a sac fly by Tommy Everidge did the damage. The Barnstormers would tack on four more runs highlighted by a Jamie Pedroza two-run home run. 
 
The Ducks would get on the board with a RBI single by Josh Johnson off Lancaster starter Dwayne Pollok, but the ‘Stormers would answer right back with a RBI single by Tiffee and a solo blast by Everidge in the seventh to put the game out of reach.  
 
Pollok (5-0) earned the win, going six innings allowing one run on seven hits and giving up just one walk. Meyer (2-5) was saddled with the loss, yielding six runs on five hits with four strikeouts in two and two-thirds innings.  
 
Mitch Canham led the Flock with three hits, while Johnson provided the only RBI for the Ducks.
