Carolina Beats Wilmington, 8-2
Carolina pitcher Chris Holtzhouser did his part in helping his team beat the Wilmington Blue Rocks, 8-2. The right-hander kept opposing batters from doing too much damage. Wilmington is 3-3 after the loss.

The Blue Rocks had been locked in a 1-1 tie with the Mudcats going into the bottom of the fifth inning. That changed quickly when the 21-year old center fielder Brad Wright came to the plate. Wright hit a 2-run double on a 1-1 curveball from Wilmington hurler Lou McKee. It was Wright's 1st double of the year.

"Chris's not intimidated by who's stepping into the batter's box," said Carolina manager John Cornely.
