HIGH POINT, N.C. - The High Point Rockers used outstanding pitching from Ben Wereski and Gabe Klobosits to hold the Charleston Dirty Birds to four hits in a 5-0 win on Wednesday night at Truist Point.

The win gives the Rockers a 65-42 overall record and a 24-20 mark in the second half. Charleston fell to 48-59 and 18-26.
The game started as a pitcher's duel between High Point's Wereski (W, 2-3) and Charleston's Jamison Hill (L, 2-14). Wereski did not yield a hit until the fourth while Hill held the Rockers to two hits until the bottom of the fourth.
Alex Dickerson started the fourth for the Rockers with a walk and came around to score when Aidan Brewer hammered his 13th homer of the season to stake the Rockers to a 2-0 advantage.
Evan Edwards hit a solo homer with two outs in the sixth to give the Rockers a 3-0 lead.
