Jacob Weston came off the bench and never even had to swing his bat as Weston reached on a stolen base in the nine to lead the Herndon Braves (6-7) to a 1-0 win over the D.C. Grays (7-12) on Wednesday at Washington Nationals Academy.
With the game scoreless in the ninth inning.
The D.C. Grays had no answer for Chris Lohr, who kept runners off the basepaths in his appearance. The D.C. Grays managed just one hit off of Lohr, who allowed no earned runs, walked two and struck out six during his four innings of work.
Marlon Pruitt ended up on the wrong side of the pitching decision, charged with his first loss of the year. He lasted just 1 2/3 innings, walked three, struck out one, and allowed one run.
