Hillcats Topple Stone Crabs, 8-3, as McDowell Shines
Lynchburg defeated Charlotte, 8-3, in large part due to 22-year old center fielder Marquis McDowell. McDowell drove in 3 runs. The left fielder had 1 double and 2 home runs for the Hillcats. Lynchburg has won 4 straight, while Charlotte has lost 4 in a row.

Dylan Lazo had a big 2-run home run for the Hillcats in the bottom of the third inning. With Lynchburg leading 1-0 and a runner on 2nd, he sized up a fastball from 25-year old right-handed pitcher Mike Morris and punished it. The result was his 16th home run of the season, which put the Hillcats on top, 3-0.

"We didn't play well enough to win," Charlotte skipper Joe Cline said.
