Frederick Beaten, 7-4, by Potomac
The Potomac Nationals beat the Frederick Keys by a score of 7-4. Potomac catcher Mike Ludwick deserved the lion's share of the credit. Ludwick was 1-1 with a home run. He drove in 4 runs and scored once for the Nationals. Sergio Fernández closed it out for his 6th save. The Potomac winning streak has reached 4 games.

Ludwick had a game-changing home run in the top of the ninth. On a 2-2 fastball from Raúl Hernández, he banged a grand slam home run to left-center, giving the Nationals a 7-4 lead. It was the 2nd home run of the year for Ludwick.

"As well as we've been playing, I think we can play even better," said Potomac manager Cesar Martin.
