KANNAPOLIS, N.C. - Hagerstown's Pat Dobson did what a leadoff hitter is supposed to do Wednesday night, sparking the lineup with a 4-for-5 night and leading the Suns to a 6-1 win over the Kannapolis Intimidators.
Dobson doubled twice and drove in two runs to back another solid outing by Suns starter Ben Thurmond (4-2), who scattered seven hits and struck out seven in 7 1/3 innings.
The Suns (33-47, 5-8 second half) scored single runs in the second, third and fourth innings - each coming with two outs.
Jonathan Armitage walked with one out in the top of the second, took second on a wild pitch and scored on a two-out single by Derek Barrows to give Hagerstown a 1-0 lead.
