Matos Lifts Flying Tigers to 5-1 Triumph
The Lakeland Flying Tigers trumped the Dunedin Blue Jays, 5-1, at Florida Auto Exchange Stadium. Lakeland first baseman Oliver Matos was terrific. He went 3-3 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. Lakeland goes to 33-15. The win puts them 6½ games up in their division.

Doug Thompson came through with a big-time hit for Lakeland. The catcher smacked a 2-run home run in the top of the seventh inning to give his team the lead, 2-0. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"It was a solid team effort," said Matos after the game.
