RICHMOND, Va. (WWBT) -The Richmond Flying Squirrels lost to the Erie Seawolves Tuesday evening in the Eastern League playoffs.

The Squirrels were defeated 5-0 in the first game of the Southwest Division of the Eastern League playoffs after securing the No. 2 spot last week.

Richmond batters notched only two hits in the game, and four runs in the fourth inning put Erie on top for good.

This was the baseball team’s second year in a row they made it to the playoffs and only the fourth time in team history.

The Squirrels now have to travel to get two wins in the best-of-three playoffs on the road starting Thursday, where they will take on the SeaWolves again in Pennsylvania.
