On Road, Baltimore Beats Toronto, 4-3
The Baltimore Lords handed the Toronto Hurons a loss at Dominion Field. The final score was 4-3. Tim McNeely was one of the major contributors for Baltimore. In addition to his 1 single and 1 home run, he scored 2 runs and drove in 2. Larry Diego picked up the win, improving his season record to 7-3. He struck out 3 in 5 innings. Picking up the save was 24-year old right-handed pitcher Efrain Roca.

Tied up with the Hurons in the top of the fourth inning, the Lords got a boost from pitcher Larry Diego. With runners on 1st and 2nd, Diego saw a 2-1 cutter from Mike Beers and hit a run-scoring single to break the stalemate and put Baltimore on top, 3-2.

"Good win," said Diego. "Maybe some of the whiners in the clubhouse will pipe down for a little while now."

With the victory, the Lords upped their record to 33-25.
