Lexington starter Steve Maddox pitched well against the Rome Hammers at Whitaker Bank Ballpark. The left-hander led his team to a win, 3-2. Jack Masson notched his 13th save of the season. The setback makes Rome 31-21.

Jeff Thomas drove in one run for Lexington. With one out and the game tied in the bottom of the seventh inning, Thomas, who is tied for 2nd in the SAL in stolen bases with 9, had a clutch at-bat. Facing Rome hurler Joe Burton, he grounded out, driving in 1 run to give the Legends a 3-2 lead.

"Just glad I could help us get a win," said Maddox.
