Vesling Spins 1-Hitter for Blue Sox

Jake Vesling (1-0) tossed a one-hit shutout when the Lexington Blue Sox blanked the Malden Maddogs 2-0 on Tuesday evening at Maplewood. Vesling struck out eight and did not walk a batter. He retired the last 19 Maddogs in a row. Rob Carrillo (2-1) was nearly as good for Malden. He only allowed five hits and K’d 10. Andrew Selima and Moragn Brown knocked in the Lexington runs. Conor Hanlon’s double accounted for Malden’s only hit.
