Black Cats Win 4-3 Walk-Off
Melito Báez left his imprint on the 4-3 Gwinnett County win against the Hogsmeade Cauldrons. Báez, who was drafted in the two round of the 2026 draft, was 4 for 4 with a double, 3 singles, and a walk. Gwinnett County is 9th in the Premier A with a record of 40-55.

The clutch at-bat in the bottom of the ninth belonged to Báez. Facing Kevin McCrary with runners on 2nd and 3rd, the Gwinnett County second baseman had a run-scoring single. Game over, walk-off style!

Báez told the Gwinnett County Today: "I was born for the big stage."
