Lexington Topples Columbia, 9-4
The Lexington Legends knocked off the Columbia Fireflies, 9-4, in South Atlantic League action at Whitaker Bank Ballpark. Lexington pitcher and Stratford, Connecticut, native Josh Tucker had an outstanding performance. In 6.1 innings, Tucker surrendered 8 hits, while striking out 5 and walking 0. He allowed 3 runs. Lexington goes to 65-29, Columbia to 50-44.

Luis de Leon had a big 2-run home run for the Legends in the bottom of the third inning. With Lexington leading 2-1 and a runner on 3rd, he sized up a fastball from George Faint, who is tied for 8th in the SAL in wins with 9, and punished it. The result was his 4th home run of the season, which put the Legends on top, 4-1.

"Winning never gets dull," said Tucker.
