Charleston, S.C. – The Charleston RiverDogs carried a no-hitter into the eighth inning as they earned a tight 2-1 win over the Fayetteville Woodpeckers on Sunday night in front of 5,055 fans at Joseph P. Riley Jr, Park. 

With the win, the RiverDogs have won four straight, and seven of their last eight. They finish the day with sole possession of first place in the Carolina League South standings. 

After Alex Wallace recorded a scoreless first, Trey Pooser took over in the second and was dominant. Over five relief innings, he didn't allow a hit and fanned six hitters. He earned his team-leading fourth win in the process. 

The RiverDogs opened scoring in the bottom of the sixth when Jose Monzon rolled an RBI double to right and scored on a Derek Datil sacrifice fly that made it 2-0.

The Woodpeckers broke up the no hitter in the top of the eighth, with a rally that included an RBI single by Kevin Alvarez to cap scoring at 2-1. 

Bryce Shaffer recorded the final three outs of the ninth to earn his second save of the year. With the win, the RiverDogs moved to 17-10 while Fayetteville fell to 10-17.
