Lynx Toast Unicorns, 13-3
The Ottawa Lynx handed the Newport Unicorns a sound defeat, 13-3, at Rivermen Ballpark. Pat Cureton was a main contributor to the win. He was 3-5 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk, while scoring 2 times and driving in 2 for Ottawa. The Unicorns fall to 3-9 and continue their unimpressive start to the 2026 season.

Dave King drove in one run for Ottawa. In a tie game with one out in the bottom of the sixth, King came through with a run-scoring ground out. It put the Lynx in front, 4-3.

"I really like what we did out there today," Cureton said after the game.
