The Lynchburg Hillcats picked up a win at Ed Smith Stadium, downing the Carolina Mudcats, 3-1. On the mound for Lynchburg was right-hander David Benitez, who played a pivotal role in the win. Lynchburg pitcher Josh Dodson got the win, upping his record to 2-0. Jose Guerrero got the loss. Lynchburg currently is in third place in the Northern Division at 47-50.

Lynchburg went up, 3-1, on Ben LaPorte's 12th double of the season. The 2-run double, which LaPorte hit in the bottom of the eighth, left Carolina pitcher Jose Guerrero shaking his head.

"We'll pop the top on a cold beverage and get back to work tomorrow," LaPorte said.
