Lexington Hands Savannah 10-4 Defeat
A 4-RBI performance from the 23-year old shortstop Héctor Marín helped the Lexington Legends beat the Savannah Sand Gnats, 10-4. Ben Tucker went 5.1 innings, allowing 2 runs on 5 hits. The left-hander struck out 6 and walked 1. With the win, he ups his record to 5-9 this season. Oscar Evans, credited with the save, is now 4 for 6 in save opportunities.

Marín contributed a big hit, a bases-clearing triple, for Lexington in the top of the fifth. With his team trailing 1-0, Marín took a curveball from Monte Craig and stroked the triple to right. His 4th triple of the season allowed the Legends to leap in front, 3-1.

Marín said his wife shared good advice with him before the game. "She said, 'Don't allow this game to make you mad.' When I thought about it, I realized this is just a game. I was able to relax at the plate."

The win elevated the Legends to 61-51.
