BOWIE, MD - The Chesapeake Baysox, the Double-A affiliate of the Baltimore Orioles, won their fourth straight with a 1-0 victory over the Harrisburg Senators, the Double-A affiliate of the Washington Nationals, on Thursday night from Prince George's Stadium.

Chesapeake (26-34, 57-70) starting right-hander Nestor German threw six scoreless innings and allowed just one hit and two walks with five strikeouts in a no-decision. The Orioles No. 14 prospect holds a 1.02 ERA over his last three starts, spanning 17.2 innings pitched.

The Baysox were no-hit through the first 7.2 innings after Harrisburg (30-30, 64-65) starter Erik Tolman threw five scoreless, no-hit innings and allowed two walks and Chance Huff threw two scoreless, no-hit innings.

Senators' Austin Amaral (L, 2-2) collected the first two outs of the seventh, but Doug Hodo hammered a 1-2 fastball over the left-field wall for a go-ahead solo homer to put the Baysox in front 1-0. It would be the lone hit for the Baysox on the night.

Alex Pham (S, 1) pitched a 1-2-3 ninth for his first save of the season and completed a one-hit shutout win.
