The New Hampshire Fisher Cats shutout the Harrisburg Senators 2-0 Saturday night at Northeast Delta Dental Stadium. The Senators suffered their 12th shutout loss of the season.

Connor Panas homered to lead off the second to make the score 2-0 Fisher Cats.
That was the last run allowed by Senators starting pitcher Kyle McGowin. The right-hander kept New Hampshire to two runs on four hits while striking out nine and walking three in six innings.
