-MUCKDOGS ROLL IN WITH MOSS: Batavia begins the two-game set in State College with right-hander Andrew Moss on the mound. Moss has gone six or more innings on four different occasions this year, and his six wins are tied for fifth in the New York-Penn League. The Piedmont, MO native has a 2.27 ERA at home and a 5.04 ERA on the road.
