Mudcats Top Hillcats in Extras, 9-8
In a high-scoring game between Carolina and Lynchburg, first baseman Shawn Simmons was a difference-maker. The 22-year-old helped Carolina grab the 9-8 win. He went 2-4 with a home run and a walk, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. Picking up the save was Shawn Black, his 1st. Carolina, now 3-1, is setting the league on fire so far.

Don Stephens drove in one run for Carolina. The 25-year old right-handed pitcher had a key at-bat in the top of the tenth. With one out and runners on 1st and 3rd, he broke a 8-8 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Chad Cochrane. It was his 1st RBI of the season.

Simmons told a Carolina Citizen reporter that he felt "like dancing the hula" after the win.
