Big Day for Lesaca as Battery Down Kingfishers, 5-3
The Pittsburgh Kingfishers opened their 2045 season with a disappointing 5-3 loss to the Charleston Battery at Pittsburgh Grounds. Second Baseman Datu Lesaca was a big part of the win for Charleston. He was 3 for 4 with a home run and 2 singles, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 3. Charleston reliever Manny Rodríguez picked up the win, upping his record to 1-0. James Callendar was saddled with the loss.

Charleston used the timely hitting of Rafael Urrutiz to seize the win. The center fielder stroked a 2-run single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Battery on top, 5-3. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

In postgame comments to the Charleston Times, Lesaca said, "If the effort is there, the wins will come."
