Lords Curb Hurons, 5-4
The Baltimore Lords picked up a win at Dominion Field, knocking off the Toronto Hurons, 5-4. Starting pitcher Larry Diego played a key role in the triumph. The Hurons, at 46-77, have lost 5 straight games.

Baltimore used a clutch at-bat from Larry Merritt to capture the win. The catcher hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the first inning to put the Lords ahead, 3-0. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"Larry has got a slow heartbeat," said Baltimore manager Steve Read. "He doesn't panic or anything."
