Muckdogs continue to pile up wins

By Howard B. Owens

The Muckdogs continue to rip through the NY Penn League, shredding Mahoning Valley yesterday 8-1 for the team's 12th win in its last 14 contests.

The victory put Batavia back in first place, a half game ahead of Williamsville.

Jon Rodriguez homered in his third straight game, giving him six on the year. He had three hits, two RBIs and scored twice.

Infielder Joey Bergman brought his season average back up over .300 with another multi-hit game, going 2-4 and scoring three runs.

Starter Chris Corrigan picked up his third win, going five innings and giving up one run on three hits.

The Muckdogs are in Brooklyn tonight for the start of a three-game series. After three games in Vermont, they return to Dwyer on Tuesday to face Aberdeen.
