Carolina Upended by Salem, 6-5
The Salem Red Sox beat the Carolina Mudcats, 6-5, at Grainger Stadium. Salem center fielder Walt Spears banged out 2 singles and 1 double, while driving in 2 runs. José Ruíz got the save, his 7th in 7 chances. Salem is now 57-65. Carolina is 58-64.

It could have been a different outcome for Salem, had it not been for Andy Henderson, the 24-year old catcher . Henderson contributed a run-scoring single in the top of the ninth inning to put Salem up, 6-5.

"It's nice to deliver when your team's counting on you," said Henderson.
