Lords Improve to 45-31 with 3-2 Win
Baltimore right-hander Larry Diego helped his team edge Atlanta by the score of 3-2. Diego kept the opposing lineup in check. The winner was Diego. He threw 7.2 innings of 4-hit ball. The loser was Ron Cwiklinski. The Lords lead the American Baseball League Eastern Division by 3 games.

Baltimore used the timely hitting of John Balliet to seize the win. The third baseman stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the seventh inning to put the Lords on top, 3-0. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"We busted our tails," said Atlanta manager Philipe Yazzie. "But we came up short."
