Legends Best Crawdads in Pitching Duel
Lexington Legends starter Chris Rutherford turned in a top-notch performance against the Hickory Crawdads at L.P. Frans Stadium. The result was a win for the Legends, 2-0. Rutherford, now 2-2, was the winner. In 5 innings, he gave up 1 hit, while striking out 8, walking 2, and allowing no runs. Lexington is third in the Southern Division with a record of 76-45.

Lexington used a well-timed hit by Alex Valdez to capture the win. The catcher socked a run-scoring double in the top of the fifth inning to put the Legends ahead, 2-0. Though it was his only hit in 3 at-bats, it was important.

Valdez called the win "a lesson in teamwork."
