Salem Beaten, 6-4, by Potomac
The Potomac Nationals downed the Salem Red Sox, 6-4, at G. Richard Pfitzner Stadium. The Nationals were led by Steve McGuffie. McGuffie was 4 for 4 with 4 singles and a walk, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. Cisco Hernández was the winner in relief. His record is now 2-0. The losing pitcher was David De La Rosa. Sergio Fernández earned the save for Potomac.

Had McGuffie not come through in the bottom of the eighth, who knows how the game would've ended? But with two down, McGuffie hit a 2-run single. The Nationals took the lead, 6-4, and never looked back.

"We were able to put some good swings on some pitches," McGuffie told the Potomac Observer.

The victory makes Potomac 10-21.
