The Lynchburg Hillcats and Wilmington Blue Rocks provided some drama for the home crowd.

The Wilmington Blue Rocks picked up a win at Daniel S. Frawley Stadium, downing the Lynchburg Hillcats, 2-1, in 12 innings. On the mound for Wilmington was right-hander Clarence Howell, who played a pivotal role in the win. The win went to Pete Mousset in relief. His record improves to 3-2. Orlando Castro took the loss.

Wilmington got a clutch hit from Tony Miller. The pinch hitter launched a solo home run in the bottom of the 12th inning to win the game. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a kill shot.

Miller said the team appreciates the support from the fans. "I'm glad we could reward them with a good win," he said after the game.

The loss makes Lynchburg 85-50.
