Dragons Hope Opening Day Win Bodes Well for Season
The South Bend Cubs started the 2110 season not with a bang but with a whimper, falling, 9-2, to the Dayton Dragons at Four Winds Field at Coveleski Stadium. Starting Pitcher Dave Vallejo was the top performer for Dayton. Vallejo, the winner, moves to 1-0. He threw 6.1 innings of 4-hit ball, while fanning 6 and giving up 2 walks.

Dayton used a clutch at-bat from Justin Omundson to capture the win. The catcher hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Dragons ahead, 3-0. It was his lone hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"Every good pitch to hit is a strike," said Omundson. "But not every strike is a good pitch to hit."
