Spirited fans greeted the Lansing Lugnuts for their clash with the Dayton Dragons.

The Dayton Dragons coasted to a win over the Lansing Lugnuts, 11-2. Ed McCarthy had a good day at the plate for Dayton. He was 3 for 4 with a home run and a double. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. Josh Means earned the win. Kevin Carlton, who is tied for 3rd in the MID in innings pitched with 205.1, took the loss for Lansing.

Luis Miranda had a big bases-clearing double for the Dragons in the top of the fifth inning. With Dayton leading 2-1 and the bases loaded, he got a curveball from Kevin Carlton and swatted a double to right. It was his 9th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Dragons ahead, 5-1.

Lansing manager Edgar Varela called the blowout loss "ugly."

Dayton is now 58-81, while Lansing is 61-78.
