The Ballpark at Harbor Yard rests near the bottom of the list for preferred destinations in the Atlantic League. In a league known for its new ballparks, Bridgeport doesn't have a jewel.

An announced crowd of 573 showed up for Bridgeport's 11th game of the season. But Harbor Yard's lack of character seems to be an advantage for the Bluefish.

Bridgeport's Tim Drew shut out York, 7-0, Tuesday, holding York to one hit through seven innings. York's Matt Dryer managed to reach on an infield single in the eighth, but York never threatened to score. Drew (2-0) struck out three, walked one and allowed two hits in eight innings. T.J. Tucker finished the game by pitching a scoreless ninth.

York is 2-9 all-time in Bridgeport. And the Revolution have yet to win a game on the road, falling to 0-5 this season.

The loss added to the woes for York starter Corey Thurman (0-3). Thurman appeared to be a possible ace in spring training, and he continued to pitch well in his season-debut in Camden, where a home run spoiled an otherwise sharp outing. But he's failed to earn his first victory of the season after two rough outings.

The former major leaguer lasted 11/3 innings, allowing six earned runs. He struck out two, walked three and allowed five hits.

Bridgeport (6-5) scored six runs in the second, when six straight batters reached base safely against Thurman. York (5-6) pulled Thurman after he surrendered the big hit of the game, a bases-loaded

Four York relievers combined to pitch the final 62/3 innings, allowing one run on five hits. And Nick McCurdy struck out seven in 32/3
