Dragons Rally Late to Clip Lansing
The Lansing Lugnuts and Dayton Dragons provided some drama for the home crowd.

Augusto Mercado did all he could to help his team win. In the end, though, it wasn't enough to keep the Lansing Lugnuts from being beaten, 12-11, to the Dayton Dragons at Fifth Third Field. Mercado was 4 for 5 with a home run and 3 singles. He scored 2 runs and drove in 3. By defeating Lansing, the 7th-place Dragons improved to 49-66.

Greg Campbell was the walk-off hero for Dayton. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Dragons second baseman hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"I'm just trying to make good contact," said Campbell, "one at-bat at a time."
