No one should be upset because no one picked the correct numbers to win the large Powerball jackpot last night. It didn't stop people from walking up to the lottery outlets to buy a chance at a multi-million

The West Virginia Power lost 9-4 to the Delmarva Shorebirds on Sunday afternoon at Appalachian Power Park. Delmarva scored seven runs in the first inning of West Virginia starter Ryan Hafner to build an insurmountable advantage.
Hafner hit Glynn Davis with the second pitch of the game before allowing a single and walking a batter to load the bases with no one out. Michael Ohlman walked and brought home the first run. The Shorebirds proceeded to plate two more before the first out was recorded. Hafner was knocked from the game after walking Sammie Starr to reload the bases with a 4-0 deficit. Zac Fuesser allowed a double to pinch hitter Mikey Planeta that cleared the bases for a 7-0 Shorebirds lead.
West Virginia scored once in the bottom of the first on back-to-back doubles by Jose Osuna and Gregory Polanco, but Delmarva made it a seven run lead again in the fifth with a two-run home run by Jason Esposito.
The Power will start a seven game road trip on Monday evening in Greensboro. West Virginia will play four games against the Grasshoppers before traveling for a three game set against the Lakewood BlueClaws. The Power return to Appalachian Power Park on Monday, July 30, to start an eight game homestand against Hagerstown and Lakewood.
