The Lynchburg Hillcats beat the Carolina Mudcats by a score of 6-2. Lynchburg second baseman Danny Griffin deserved the lion's share of the credit. Griffin went 3 for 4 with a double and 2 singles. He drove in 3 runs and scored once for the Hillcats. Lynchburg reliever Raúl Villalobos was the winner. His record is now 1-0. The losing pitcher was Ron Conrad.
