Slippery Rock’s late rally was not enough as the Sliders dropped a 13-7 Prospect League home game to Lorain County Tuesday night.

The hosts trailed 11-2 before plating four runs in the bottom of the eighth inning.

Ryne Clark led the Sliders’ 11-hit attack with two doubles and two runs scored.

David Wilson started on the mound for Slippery Rock (15-16) and was charged with the loss after allowing seven runs (five earned) in two innings pitched.

Butler’s game at West Virginia was postponed due to rain and will be made up today as part of a doubleheader.
