BURLINGTON, VT - The Batvia Muckdogs got back-to-back RBI singles from Albert Guaimaro and Brayan Hernandez in the fourth inning and held on for a 3-1 victory over the Vermont Lake Monsters in New York-Penn League action Sunday evening at historic Centennial Field.

Batavia took the 2-0 lead in the fourth off reliever Yorlenis Noa (0-3), who issued a pair of one-out walks before the Guaimaro RBI single to center and Hernandez RBI infield single to second base that scored Sean Reynolds from second base.

Vermont got a run back in the sixth when Logan Davidson was able to score from second base on a Jose Rivas RBI infield single to shortstop. Batavia restored the two-run lead with a run in the ninth without a hit as Brayan Hernandez led off with a walk, advanced to second on a sacrifice and then scored on back-to-back wild pitches by Jose Mora.

Batavia starter Julio Frias (2-1) gave up just the one run on two hit with three walks and five strikeouts over six innings of work. He did not allow a base hit until a Marty Bechina one-out single in the fifth. Reliever Josh Simpson tossed two hitless innings, while Evan Brabrand worked around a two-out error and infield single in ninth for his sixth save.

Vermont starter Tyler Baum tossed three hitless innings with two walks and three strikeouts. The 2019 second-round pick out of North Carolina has now allowed just two runs on seven hits with four walks and 10 strikeouts over 10 innings pitched in his four professional starts.
