The RiverDogs were out-hit 14-4 by the GreenJackets, which is obviously not a recipe for success. DBJ has now hit in seven straight games. If Charleston can hang on to first place for the next few games, they will automatically qualify for the playoffs as the first half champions. Jose Campos pitches for the RiverDogs today at 2:05 pm.
