ZEBULON, N.C. – In their first ever series, Carolina completed the three-game sweep of the Potomac Nationals with a 3-2 victory Sunday afternoon in Zebulon. For the first time this year, Potomac had just two hits in a nine-inning game.
For the second straight day, Potomac took a lead with one run in the third. Against Carolina starter LHP Randolph Oduber singled then scored thanks in part to to two errors by the Mudcats. Oduber scored on a bunt by Blake Kelso to give the Nationals a 1-0 lead.
The Mudcats responded in the fourth off of P-Nats starter Paul Applebee who was making his first start of 2012. Jesus Aguilar grounded out to short scoring Tony Wolters to knot the game 1-1.
