Late Heroics Net Lords 4-3 Win
It was pandemonium at Seton Hill Stadium after an exciting walk-off win.

The Lords earned a hard-fought, 4-3 win in 10 innings at Seton Hill Stadium. To do so required withstanding a fine effort from New York pitcher Nate Frampton. Frampton went 7 innings and allowed 3 runs. Baltimore pitcher Phil Morris earned the win, hiking his record to 3-2. Tom Duncan suffered the loss.

The Lords got a clutch hit from pinch hitter Doug Stewart. In the bottom of the tenth, he delivered a run-scoring single to win the game for the Lords.

"I'm glad I could get it done when the game was in the balance," Stewart said in his postgame press conference.

The win gives Baltimore a season record of 63-54.
