Salem Drops Another One, 4-0
The Lynchburg Hillcats knocked off the Salem Red Sox, 4-0, in Carolina League action at Salem Memorial Baseball Stadium. Lynchburg pitcher and Murrieta, California, native Juan Cruz had an outstanding performance. Chad Cochrane finished the game for Lynchburg and earned his 11th save. The Lynchburg win streak is now 5 games.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Bob O'Brian? The Lynchburg third baseman had a run-scoring double in the top of the fifth inning to put the Hillcats on top, 2-0. For the game, O'Brian had 1 double and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

Cruz attributed the win to "an all-around good team performance."
