Timber Hawks Need Extra Frames to Get Past Lake Monsters
Despite a fine performance by catcher Rodrigo Velasco, the Vermont Lake Monsters suffered a 8-7 loss to the Augusta Timber Hawks. Velasco was 3 for 4 with 3 singles, while scoring 2 times and driving in 2. Iván Flores, credited with the win, is now 1-1. He allowed no runs on 3 hits in 2 innings. The Timber Hawks' win now puts them at 40-44.

The game was at a stalemate until second baseman Pedro Jiménez came to bat in the bottom of the tenth. Facing Vermont pitcher Jim Unknown, he hit a 0-1 fastball for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Augusta on top, 8-7.

Jiménez said this kind of win gives the team "a buzz."
