SALISBURY, Md. - The Hagerstown Suns must mend the errors of their ways.
If they don't, going home is the only way left to go.
The Suns started two innings with errors, opening the door for 10 Delmarva runs, as the Shorebirds turned the first game of the South Atlantic League's North Division playoff series into a laugher with a 13-3 victory.
Six of Delmarva's 13 runs were unearned as Hagerstown committed four errors. The Suns' sore thumb stuck out again since Hagerstown allowed nearly one unearned run per game in the regular season.
The Shorebirds own a 1-0 lead in the best-of-3 series. The two teams are off today before playing the second game Friday at 7:05 p.m., at Municipal Stadium. The final game will be played, if needed, on Saturday.
