Geraldi Diaz homered and picked up a couple of RBIs, but the FredNats fell for the first time at Salem Memorial Ballpark 4-2 Friday. The FredNats still lead the six-game series 3-1.

Diaz came up with a sacrifice fly in the seventh and his fourth homer of the season in the ninth to bring the FredNats halfway back from a 4-0 deficit. Jared McKenzie finished with two hits and a run scored.

The FredNats withstood a late Salem surge to notch a 10-8 win Wednesday at Carilion Clinic Field. Jarlin Susana struck out six while pitching into the fifth, and Branden Boissiere went deep to power the win.

Susana turned in his best start yet for the FredNats, allowing no hits through four innings. He allowed a double in the fifth before exiting with 66 pitches and a season-high six strikeouts.

Geraldi Diaz and Branden Boissiere combined for 7 RBIs as the FredNats established control of the contest in the first and never looked back. Diaz’s three-run home run in the opening turn cemented an 8-run frame that proved the difference. Six different FredNats scored multiple runs.

Cortland Lawson hit a go-ahead home run in the 7th inning and drove in four runs, and the FredNats beat the Delmarva Shorebirds for a 12th straight time on Thursday night by a final of 11-9.

The FredNats scored four runs in the 2nd inning on RBI singles from Jared McKenzie and Jacob Young, and a two-run single by Lawson. Delmarva scored three in the 3rd and five in the 5th to take an 8-6 lead after a two-run single by Will Frizzell in the 4th inning.

The FredNats erased an 8-0 deficit in the 5th inning, capping it off scoring six runs in the 8th inning, and beat the Delmarva Shorebirds 12-8 to win their 11th straight game over the Shorebirds. The eight-run comeback was the largest of the season.

Jarlin Susana started for the FredNats and pitched well in his second start, going three innings, allowing two hits, one run, and walked three with four strikeouts. His ERA is 2.84 through two starts with the team.

Jackson Rutledge pitched six innings of two-run ball for his third win of the month, Will Frizzell homered for the tenth time as a FredNat, and the team picked up an 8-4 win over the Delmarva Shorebirds in the series opener at Virginia Credit Union Stadium.

The FredNats wasted no time getting going once again, scoring twice in the 1st inning on RBIs from T.J. White and Branden Boissiere. Cortland Lawson drove in a run with an RBI single in the 2nd as well, and it was 3-0 after two.

After winning the series with Down East last night, the FredNats were shut out by a final of 6-0 today at the hands of the Wood Ducks. The team only managed one hit, belonging to Jared McKenzie in the 7th inning.

Jose Atencio took the loss for Fredericksburg, pitching 4 2/3 innings and allowing six earned runs. He struck out five. McKenzie and Sammy Infante were the only base runners in the game for the FredNats.
