After a seven-pitch at-bat, Adam Hall’s teammate Alexis Torres lined a walk-off single in the bottom of the ninth, propelling the Delmarva Shorebirds to a 2-1 win over the Lakewood BlueClaws at the Arthur W. Perdue Stadium.
The Delmarva Shorebirds ninth inning began with a 10-pitch battle between Cadyn Grenier and the BlueClaws' Victor Santos, resulting in a Grenier walk. Gilmael Troya then replaced Santos and induced a popout before Ben Breazeale singled to left. Both runners then advanced on a wild pitch, prompting Lakewood to intentionally walk Jean Carlos Encarnacion and setting the stage for Torres. On a 3-2 count, Torres ripped it into right field to score Grenier and deliver the Shorebirds' fourth walkoff win of the season.
In the third inning and down 1 – 0 and with runners now at first and second, Hall chopped a single down the right field line, scoring a run and tying the game at 1 - 1.
On his 20th birthday, Hall collected his 16th multi-hit game of the season for Delmarva, going 2-for-4 with a Double and an RBI.
