Loons Trip Highlanders, 6-4, in Extra Innings
The Minnesota Loons overcame a good performance by Asheville shortstop Garrett Kline to knock off Asheville, 6-4, at Asheville Park. Kline was 3-5 with a home run and 2 singles. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. The winner in relief was Matt Dougherty. He is now 1-0. The right-hander allowed 1 run on 4 hits in 3 innings. The loss puts Asheville at 6-8.

Minnesota used a clutch hit from Dwayne Gunn to get the win. The pinch hitter drilled a 2-run home run in the top of the 13th inning to put the Loons ahead, 6-4. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a game-changer.

"When you think about it," Gunn said, "there's often a fine line between triumph and tragedy. One pitch, one swing of the bat can make all the difference."
