Carolina Mudcats News Release
FREDERICKSBURG, V.A. - The Fredericksburg Nationals got a pair of great pitching performances and did enough offensively as they swept a doubleheader from the Carolina Mudcats 1-0 and 2-0 on Thursday night at Virginia Credit Union Stadium.
In game one:
Fredericksburg (48-35, 13-4 second half) scored the only run in the game on a single from Nate Rombach to take the 1-0 advantage.
Carolina (49-32 overall, 8-8 second half) put the tying run in scoring position in the sixth but could not get the knock they needed as the Mudcats fell 1-0.
