For a team that was looking to win a game for the first time in three days, a late surge by the Batavia Muckdogs couldn’t have come at a worse time for the State College Spikes.

After holding a one-run lead heading into the ninth inning, the Spikes (34-36) defense faltered as they fell to the Muckdogs 8-7. The Spikes let the Muckdogs (36-34) begin the ninth inning with a double down the right field line and then watched as their lead slipped away beneath the bright lights at Dwyer Stadium.

UNIVERSITY PARK — Examining the workload of Oneonta starters represents the best way to describe Thursday’s two-game conundrum.

In the opener, Luis Sanz pitched the first complete game in Medlar Field at Lubrano Park’s professional history.

In the nightcap, Cory Hamilton recorded just one out, the shortest start in the ballpark’s four years.

So, yes, the State College Spikes’ night went from brutal to beautiful in a hurry.

UNIVERSITY PARK — The first half of Brandon Holden’s season can be described in one word.

“Zeroes,” fellow reliever Alan Knotts shouted across the State College Spikes clubhouse Sunday night.

It’s been that kind of summer for Holden.

The right-hander has not allowed a run through 10 appearances. In fact, Holden has yielded just three hits
