Blackburn Lifts Grasshoppers to 8-7 Win
A 3-RBI performance from Steve Blackburn helped the Greensboro Grasshoppers beat the Lakewood BlueClaws, 8-7. Jody Watkins nailed down the save. Greensboro is now 14-9.

Greensboro used the timely hitting of Joe Collins to seize the win. The second baseman stroked a 2-run single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Grasshoppers on top, 8-6. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"It was a good night for them and a bad night for us," said Lakewood manager J.R. House.
