Senator Thomas J. Dodd Memorial Stadium was the site of a true pitchers' duel.

In a tight tilt between the Reading Fightin Phils and the Richmond Flying Squirrels, José López was the deciding factor. The Reading left-hander spearheaded the 2-1 win. López picked up the win for Reading, going 6 innings. He gave up 1 run on 6 hits. He now sports a record of 6-5.

The Fightin Phils got a big at-bat from first baseman Raúl Alonso. For the game, Alonso was 1 for 4 with a home run. In the top of the sixth, with the bases empty, he stroked a solo home run. His 6th home run of the season gave Reading a 2-1 lead.

"Every loss hurts," said Richmond manager Mike Sarbaugh. "But this was a tough one."

Today's win puts Reading at 38-53, while Richmond falls to 50-41.
