FREDERICK, Md. - Myrtle Beach and Frederick played five scoreless innings in Saturday's doubleheader opener before rain caused the game to be suspended heading into the sixth inning. The contest will resume Sunday at 6 p.m. from Nymeo Field at Harry Grove Stadium, with Sunday's scheduled contest, a nine-inning affair, following immediately after.

Myrtle Beach's Bryan Hudson threw five shutout innings, allowing just one hit while facing the minimum due to a double play. He struck out five and did not walk a batter.
