Blue Rocks Stick Hillcats with 5-1 Loss
Wilmington Blue Rocks pitcher Ricky Lopez was in top form, leading his team past the Lynchburg Hillcats, 5-1. The win gives the Blue Rocks a record of 7-3.

Wilmington used a clutch at-bat from Omar Marco to capture the win. The right fielder hammered a grand slam home run in the top of the fourth inning to put the Blue Rocks ahead, 5-1. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"Anything I can do to help the team win," said Marco.
