Bluefield Defeated by Kingsport, 8-0
Kingsport catcher Juan Rodríguez contributed significantly to his team's 8-0 win over the Bluefield Blue Jays. Rodríguez went 2 for 2 with 1 run scored to lead the offensive attack for the Mets. So far in 2025, Kingsport is 41-23.

Don Dingwell went 1-3 with a walk for Kingsport. The 19-year old first baseman had a key at-bat in the bottom of the fourth. With one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 0-0 tie with a run-scoring single off Bob Davis. It was his 11th hit of the season.

"This was a nice win for us," said Dingwell. "It's one more step toward our ultimate goal."
