Mudcats Beat Potomac, 6-5
The Carolina Mudcats faced a tough opponent in Potomac pitcher Don Jensen, but did just enough to pull out the victory at Grainger Stadium by a final score of 6-5. Jensen went 6.2 innings and allowed 2 runs. Carolina has 3 straight wins, Potomac 3 straight losses.

The clutch at-bat came in the bottom of the ninth inning, when Carolina catcher Jorge López, facing Sergio Fernández, had a run-scoring sacrifice fly. It gave the Mudcats the 6-5 win.

"You need to show up when your number's called," said López.
