Blue Rocks Bridle Mudcats, 4-2
Wilmington pitcher Johnathan Lowrance did his part in helping his team defeat the Carolina Mudcats, 4-2. The opposition could never get too much going against the right-hander. The winning pitcher was Lowrance, now 7-3. He tossed 7 innings of 5-hit ball, while walking 3 and fanning 5. Picking up the save was Jack Masson. He's now 1 for 1 in save chances.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Jon Bates? The Wilmington right fielder had a 2-run double in the top of the third inning to put the Blue Rocks on top, 3-0. For the game, Bates had 2 doubles and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

Lowrance called the win "a team effort."

Wilmington now sits at 60-71, while Carolina falls to 61-70.
