Dominant Performance by López in Niagara Falls Win
Niagara Falls starter Santiago López had a strong outing against the Grand Forks Caterpillars at Waterfall Park. The right-hander was a big part of his team's 1-0 win. Cherles Gachineiro converted his 15th save in 16 tries. Niagara Falls's record now stands at 39-43, placing them 8th in the Menard's A.

The Expos liked what they saw from López. The 21-year old pitcher had a commanding presence on the mound, limiting the Caterpillars to no earned runs on 3 hits over 8 innings, and striking out 7.

"What we get, we earn," López told the Niagara Falls Bulletin.
