The FredNat bats were silent through the first six innings, and Delmarva had all the momentum and a 4-0 lead.
Things took a turn in the 7th, and it culminated in a walk-off single from Steven Williams in the 10th inning as the FredNats came all the way back to win 5-4 and win their 4th straight game. Tonight was Fredericksburg’s 4th walk-off win of the season.
