Hickory Slaps 6-4 Loss on Lakewood
The Hickory Crawdads overcame a pretty good performance by Lakewood catcher Kurt Ross, beating the BlueClaws, 6-4, at First Energy Park. Ross hit 2 home runs. He drove in 3 runs and scored twice. Trip Pauly, the winner, is now 3-6. He struck out 9 and walked 2 over 6 innings, while allowing 3 runs on 6 hits. Rob Kennedy picked up the save, his 12th.

The Crawdads got a big hit from second baseman Juan Mena. Facing Lakewood pitcher Ed McClarnon in the top of the fifth, Mena pounded a 2-run double to left. His 9th double of the season put the Crawdads ahead, 6-0.

"I just tried to make good contact," said Mena.

With this game in the books, Hickory is 29-25, Lakewood 27-27.
