Chevalier followed by hitting a 1-0 pitch over the left field wall for his 14th homer of the year and a 2-1 lead. The home run gives Chevalier a new career high.

Edmondson (1-3), who played for the 1994 Trenton Thunder as a member of the Detroit organization, allowed two runs in two innings for the loss.

Portland (58-53) got their only run in the 7th Inning on an RBI single by Brett Roneberg off Jorge DeLaRosa.

Both starters worked six shutout innings on the night. Trenton`s Josh Hancock allowed five hits with no walks and eight strikeouts. Portland`s Claudio Vargas allowed two hits with four strikeouts.

The series concludes on Sunday at 1:00 PM. Mike Kusiewicz (4-3), just recalled from Pawtucket, goes for Trenton against Portland`s Kevin Olsen (9-1).
