Grays Deal Stars 13-4 Loss
Fans brought energy and enthusiasm to the Philadelphia Stars home opener. Steve Carlton started for the home team against Francisco Liriano for the Homestead Grays. The Stars were unable to reward the home crowd with a win. The final score was 13-4, Homestead. Mike Epstein, though, was impressive. Francisco Liriano, who went 5 innings, was the winning pitcher. He was charged with 4 runs on 4 hits, while walking 3 and striking out 9. His record now stands at 1-0.

Homestead used a clutch at-bat from Rick Reichardt to capture the win. The left fielder hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the third inning to put the Grays ahead, 6-1. It was his lone hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"Bad day," Philadelphia manager Daniel Makonnen said. "New day tomorrow."
