SALISBURY, MD: The Delmarva Shorebirds (2-13) were defeated on Tuesday afternoon by the Fredericksburg Nationals (10-6) by a score of 6-0.

The Nationals scored three batters into the game as Elijah Green doubled down the left field line to bring home Phillip Glasser, making it 1-0 Fredericksburg after an inning.

In the second, Brenner Cox snuck a ground ball through the infield to score Roismar Quintana to up the Nationals' lead to 2-0.
