Legends Drop Tourists, 3-1
In a tight tilt between the Lexington Legends and the Asheville Tourists, Jonathan Pipard was the deciding factor. The Lexington right-hander spearheaded the 3-1 win. In 7 innings, Pipard surrendered 7 hits, while striking out 3 and walking 3. He allowed 1 run. The win puts Lexington at 18-31.

Lexington used a well-timed hit by Jon Bates to capture the win. The right fielder socked a run-scoring double in the top of the fourth inning to put the Legends ahead, 1-0. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it was important.

"Jonathan mixed and matched," said Lexington manager Brad Lincoln.
