The Dock Spiders used five pitchers and took a no-hitter into the eighth inning. Fondy took a 2-0 lead into the 9th before the Chucks were able to push across a run. They had runners on 2nd and 3rd when a strikeout ended the game.
Adam Frank had a double and scored the only Chucks run. Nick Vanderhoef pitched four soild innings giving up one unearned run.
The Woodchucks will celebrate their home opener tonight as the Dock Spiders come to Athletic Park. You can hear the game on Foxsports Radio AM1390 & FM 93.9 at 6:20.
