Russell Shines in 9-1 Lakewood Win
The Lakewood BlueClaws defeated the Hickory Crawdads by the score of 9-1, with the biggest share of the credit going to third baseman Bobby Russell. Russell went 4 for 6 with a home run and 3 singles, while scoring 3 times and driving in 2 for the BlueClaws on the day. Bob Williams earned the win for Lakewood. He lasted 7.1 innings, allowing 1 run on 3 hits, while striking out 3. With the win, he raised his record to 9-10. Lakewood is now 65-67, Hickory 67-65.

Lakewood used a well-timed hit by Reginald Whitehead to capture the win. The left fielder socked a 2-run double in the top of the second inning to put the BlueClaws ahead, 4-0. Though it was his only hit in 3 at-bats, it was important.

"It was a tough night at the plate," said Hickory manager Joakim Soria.
