Wilmington Hands Carolina 6-1 Defeat
The Wilmington Blue Rocks topped the Carolina Mudcats, 6-1, in Carolina League action at Grainger Stadium. The standout performance belonged to Wilmington pitcher and Oakdale, New York, native Steffen Lord. The win gives Wilmington a season record of 47-43.

Wilmington used a well-timed hit by Bret Muldoon to capture the win. The designated hitter socked a 2-run double in the top of the sixth inning to put the Blue Rocks ahead, 3-0. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it was important.

"Steffen was pumping the zone," said Wilmington manager Ozzie Timmons.
