FAYETTEVILLE, NC: The Delmarva Shorebirds (33-53, 6-14) were defeated by the Fayetteville Woodpeckers (45-40, 9-10) on Saturday night by a final score of 4-2.
The Shorebirds found themselves behind early as the Woodpeckers scored a run due to an error, followed by a two-run homer by Cam Fisher to make it 3-0 Fayetteville after an inning.

Delmarva pushed across their first run in the sixth inning on an RBI groundout by Edwin Amparo, making it a 4-1 game.
