Highlanders Get One-Run Win at Athletic Club KC Academy
Fans watched the Asheville Highlanders and the Athletic Club KC Academy fight to the finish.

Max Hoban was a major contributor to the 5-4 Asheville win over Athletic Club KC Academy. The Highlanders left fielder went 4-5 with a home run, a double, and 2 singles. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. Asheville starter Timothy Dean was credited with the win after throwing 93 pitches over 5.2 innings. His record now stands at 3-5.

Asheville used a well-timed hit by Orel Vodarsky to capture the win. The first baseman socked a 2-run double in the top of the second inning to put the Highlanders ahead, 2-1. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it was important.

"It takes a lot of things to win a ballgame," said Asheville manager Robby Long. "It's usually not just one thing."

The 5th-place Highlanders improved to 34-36.
