The Hillcats grabbed a win, 10-3, at G. Richard Pfitzner Stadium, overcoming a fine effort from Potomac pitcher Don Jensen. Jensen went 5 innings and allowed 2 runs. The winning pitcher was Orlando Castro. He's now 7-3. He went 6.2 innings, allowing 3 runs on 7 hits for the Hillcats. Lynchburg raised its record to 43-31 with the win.

Lynchburg used the clutch hitting of Len Carter to capture the win. The left fielder drilled a run-scoring double in the top of the seventh inning to give the Hillcats the lead, 3-2. For the game, Carter had 1 single and 1 double in 6 at-bats.

"Getting a lot of baserunners and getting some timely hits, it's a good combination," said Carter.
