Fightin Phils Get One-Run Win at Richmond
Kevin Rodgers, who is tied for 3rd in the EL with a 10.5 K/9 rate, propelled his team to victory over the Richmond Flying Squirrels. The final score was 5-4, Reading. Rodgers yielded 2 runs over 6 innings to notch the win. He scattered 4 hits, walked 2, and struck out 6. His record improves to 8-9. Daniel Brunt earned his 10th save, after closing out the game.

It could have been a different outcome for Reading, had it not been for Brad Penn, the 22-year old shortstop . Penn contributed a run-scoring single in the top of the sixth inning to put Reading up, 3-2.

When asked about his performance after the game, Penn said: "Like everyone else, I'm just doing my job."

Today's win puts Reading at 39-53, while Richmond falls to 50-42.
