Lyons, Royals Get 3-1 Win
Vince Lyons was in top form in a tight contest between Burlington and Bluefield. The Royals right-hander helped his team beat the Blue Jays, 3-1. The Royals, now 3-9, have not found much traction so far in 2025.

Bluefield could barely put a dent in Lyons. The right-hander tossed 107 pitches over 8 innings for the Royals, allowing only 3 hits.

"Vince did exactly what you're supposed to, pounding the zone," said Burlington manager Bartolo Colon.
