The Richmond Flying Squirrels snapped a four-game losing streak with a 4-1 win in the first game of a doubleheader against the Akron RubberDucks on Saturday night at Canal Park, before falling, 2-1, in extra innings in the second game.

The Flying Squirrels (5-15) picked up their first win over the RubberDucks (13-6) this season behind a late rally in Game 1. Richmond trailed 1-0 entering the sixth inning before tying the game when Vaun Brown scored on a missed catch error as Aeverson Arteaga attempted a sacrifice bunt.

Later in the inning, Jairo Pomares belted a three-run homer, his team-leading fourth of the season, to put the Flying Squirrels ahead for good.

Nick Garcia (1-0) earned the win with two scoreless innings of relief, and Tyler Myrick recorded his first save, working around two hits and two walks over the final two frames.

Akron took an early lead in the third inning on an RBI single by Dayan Frias, the only run allowed by Flying Squirrels starter Jack Choate.

In Game 2, Richmond carried a 1-0 lead into the bottom of the ninth, but Akron rallied to secure a walk-off win.

Seth Lonsway took a no-hitter into the sixth inning and finished with one hit allowed over 5.1 scoreless innings, striking out three. The game remained scoreless until the ninth, when Diego Velasquez reached third on an error and scored on a sacrifice fly by Sabin Ceballos.

Braxton Roxby (0-3) entered for the bottom of the ninth but hit two batters to load the bases with one out. Jorge Burgos then delivered a two-run double for the RubberDucks’ victory.

Akron had several chances earlier in extras, but Richmond’s defense, including a diving stop and throw by Ceballos and a key strikeout by Roxby, kept the game alive until the ninth.

Jake Miller (2-0) picked up the win for Akron. Attendance for the doubleheader was 3,852.

The series concluded Sunday afternoon at Canal Park, where Richmond fell to Akron, 10-6, in the finale.
