Athan has 4 hits to Light Unicorns Fuse
Bill Athan led Newport to a triumph over Greensboro. The final score was 18-7. The catcher went 4 for 4, falling a triple shy of the cycle. He scored 3 runs and added 4 RBI. Chad Elder earned the win in relief. The right-hander allowed no runs on 5 hits in 3.2 innings. He upped his record to 2-1. The Unicorns, now 17-20, know that wins in May count the same as wins in September.

Newport used the clutch hitting of Pedro Quintero to capture the win. The designated hitter drilled a run-scoring double in the top of the eighth inning to give the Unicorns the lead, 8-7. For the game, Quintero had 1 single and 2 doubles in 5 at-bats.

"Getting a lot of baserunners and getting some timely hits, it's a good combination," said Quintero.
