Blue Rocks Win Squeaker, 2-1, Over Keys
The Wilmington Blue Rocks downed the Frederick Keys, 2-1, at Harry Grove Stadium. Stellar pitching by Jim McNeil had a lot to do with it. The left-hander, who is tied for 7th in the CAR in strikeouts with 149, handcuffed his opponent all game. The loss makes Frederick 77-47.

Cody Christian came through with a big-time hit for Wilmington. The catcher smacked a solo home run in the top of the ninth inning to give his team the lead, 2-1. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"Tough win," said Christian. "We had to earn it."
