Aberdeen Wins to Cut West Virginia Lead to 2-1
Behind a bravura effort from starter John Hodge, the Aberdeen Ironbirds topped the West Virginia Black Bears by the score of 5-0 and got their first win in the 2112 Round 2. Hodge threw 8.2 innings of shutout ball for the Ironbirds. The win narrows Aberdeen's deficit to 2-1.

Hodge delivered a quality start for Aberdeen. The 6-foot-8 right-hander allowed no earned runs on 5 hits over 8.2 innings of work.

"Teams don't get here by being incompetent, so I really wasn't expecting this," Hodge said. "I just kept throwing and they kept missing."

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Russell Diethrick Park in Morgantown.
