(Trenton, NJ) – Offense was on display at Trenton Thunder Ballpark as the Thunder looked to rebound following a one-run loss to Frederick on Saturday night.

The Thunder scored their first run of the day on Kolby Johnson’s team-leading fifth home run in the first, which was his fourth leadoff home run of the season. After Frederick tied the game at one in the third, Trenton put up a five spot in the bottom of the fourth, capped off by a three-run bases-clearing double by Ramon Jimenez.

After Joe Impeduglia hit a solo home run to extend Trenton’s lead to seven in the bottom of the sixth, chaos would unfold in the eighth. Following Roberto Pena’s three-run home run, the Keys continued to get base runners aboard. With two outs, Kirkland Banks lined a single to left field, Frederick’s Andrew Papantonis attempted to score, but was cut down at the plate by a magnificent throw from Trenton’s left fielder Anthony Abbatine.

A benches clearing brawl ensued between the two teams after the play at the plate, which resulted in Frederick’s Hyland Hall being ejected. Enrique Ozoa threw a scoreless ninth inning to give Trenton the 10-5 victory.
