Fort Wayne Upended, 7-2, by Lansing
Lugnuts first baseman Mike Nicholas left his mark on his team's 7-2 win over the Fort Wayne TinCaps. Nicholas, who is tied for 4th in the MID with a .975 OPS, went 3 for 4 with 2 doubles and a walk for Lansing in the contest. Earning his 1st save for Lansing was Bobby Thomas. The setback makes Fort Wayne 17-66.

José Viera had a key at-bat with one out in the top of the eighth for Lansing. With the bases loaded and the Lugnuts leading 2-1, he drew a walk, driving in 1 run.

"It never gets old," said Nicholas. "Winning, that is."
