Spikes Stymie Connecticut, Take 3-0 Win
Aiden Hargon imposed his will on the Tigers from the get-go. Relying mainly on his sinker, the right-hander spearheaded the 3-0 State College triumph. Hargon got the win, improving to 4-0. He gave up 1 hit and walked 1 over 5.1 innings. He allowed no runs. State College is first in the New York-Penn League South Division with a record of 42-23.

Damon Gómez had a big 2-run double for the Spikes in the bottom of the fourth inning. With State College leading 1-0 and the bases loaded, he got a fastball from 20-year old right-handed pitcher Todd Tanner and swatted a double to center. It was his 1st double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Spikes ahead, 3-0.

"We were trying to do a difficult thing -- winning a game without scoring," said Connecticut manager Simon Begum. "That's not going to work out."
