Newport Beats Medford, 5-2
The Newport Unicorns picked up a win at Ballpark of Medford, dropping the Medford Desperados, 5-2. Jesus Perez was the difference-maker. Perez, now 2-0, was the winner. In 8 innings, he gave up 9 hits, while striking out 3, walking 2, and allowing 2 runs. The loss drops Medford to 7-1.

John Lendon had a big solo home run for the Unicorns in the top of the third inning. With Newport leading 1-0 and the bases empty, he got a fastball from 22-year old right-handed pitcher Graham Renner and swatted a home run to left-center. It was his 3rd home run of the season, and more importantly, it put the Unicorns ahead, 2-0.

"I just tried to attack the bottom of the zone," Perez said.
