Legends Even With Power After Extra-Innings Win
Handed an opportunity to take a commanding lead in the Round 2, the West Virginia Power could not close the deal.

Game 4 went into extra frames and the Lexington Legends emerged victorious, taking a 12-inning, 6-4 win. Lexington pitcher Steve Walat threw 7.1 innings of 3-hit ball in the win at Appalachian Power Park to drag the Legends back to parity. The clubs are now tied 2-2 in the best-of-7 series.

Lexington used the clutch hitting of Danny Esquivel to snag the win. The first baseman drilled a 2-run home run in the top of the 12th inning to put the Legends ahead, 6-4. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a crucial one.

"Steve is good at sticking to his strengths," said Lexington manager Danny Ortiz.

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Appalachian Power Park in Charleston.
