Baysox Win First, Top Harrisburg, 2-0

Brandon Waring's 2-run single in first holds up, six pitchers combine for shutout

Brandon Waring's two-run single in the first inning was enough, and six Bowie pitchers combined on a three-hitter as the Baysox earned their first victory of the season with a 2-0 shutout of Harrisburg Saturday night.

Waring's two-out, two-run single in the top of the first was the only scoring either team would get on a night where both wasted a number of chances. Bowie (1-1) went just 1-for-13 with runners in scoring position and stranded 13 overall.

Harrisburg (1-1) was 0-for-8 with runners in scoring position and left nine on base.

Greg Miclat scored one of the two Bowie runs. He also went 3-for-4 overall with two stolen bases.
