Salisbury, Md.- Delmarva scored five runs in the bottom the fourth inning powered by Pedro Silveren's three run double en route to a 6-3 victory over the Lake County Captains Wednesday afternoon at Arthur W. Perdue Stadium. Lake County's starting pitcher Chris Archer walked the bases loaded with no one out and then gave up an RBI single to Delmarva catcher Brendan Monaghan before being lifted for reliever Gary Campfield. Campfield gave up the three run double to Silveren and an RBI single to Matt Tucker. The Captains scored a run in the sixth inning on an RBI single from Adam White scoring Roman Pena. White had two of the Captains five hits and the RBI. Delmarva's Matt Angle hit his first homerun of the season to lead off the sixth inning. Lake County scored two in the ninth off Mick Mattaliano but Delmarva held on for the 6-3 triumph, salvaging the final game of the series less than 12 hours after Tuesday's doubleheader sweep.

Luis Noel got the victory for the 'Birds with his best outing of the season, allowing just one run on three hits in 6.1 innings. Noel picked up his first victory as Delmarva evened up their record at 10-10 as they prepare for a four-game road trip to West Virginia.
