Carolina Charts 3-2 Win Over Frederick
The Carolina Mudcats picked up a win at Harry Grove Stadium, knocking off the Frederick Keys, 3-2. On the mound for Carolina was right-hander Dave Norwood. He played a key role in the triumph. The winner was Norwood. He threw 8.0 innings of 4-hit ball. The loser was José Velásquez. Losses have been few and far between for the Keys, who are now 16-7.

Who knows how it would've ended, had it not been for Luis García? The 24-year old center fielder García stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the ninth inning to put Carolina up, 3-2. For the game, he was 2 for 5, including 1 double and 1 single.

"I didn't leave too many pitches out over the plate," said Norwood.
