Love Boats Edge Past Highlanders, 4-3
Asheville pitcher John Boyd gave the Love Boats all they could handle, but in the end, Lake Minnetonka left Asheville Park with a 4-3 win. Boyd allowed 1 earned run on 4 hits over 7.1 innings. Thomas Hancock got credit for the win, improving to 8-3. He allowed no runs on 1 hit in 0.2 innings. Willie Steele earned his 27th save in 27 tries.

Lake Minnetonka used a timely hit from Pablo Santos to get the win. The shortstop delivered a run-scoring triple in the top of the tenth inning to put the Love Boats on top, 4-3. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"This was a good win," said Santos.

Lake Minnetonka leads the Menard's AA by 5 games.
