The Sliders won their first of two games against the Danville Dans Thursday in Danville, 7-1.
Both teams starting pitchers held off any runs until the 4th inning where the Sliders picked up their first run.
The Dans were able to respond with one run of their own in the bottom of the fifth, but that was all as the Sliders shut the Dans down.
The two teams meet up again tonight to finish their two-game series.
