The Trenton Thunder (7-3) completed a four-game sweep of the Richmond Flying Squirrels (4-7) with an emphatic, 15-1, win on Sunday afternoon at ARM & HAMMER Park. The loss for the Squirrels established a new franchise record for most lop-sided defeat and also extended Richmond’s losing streak to six games. That string matches the longest losing skid in the short history of the franchise as well.
