Lynx Get Hard-Earned Win
Mighty Mites Park was the site of an exciting ballgame between the Ottawa Lynx and St. Joseph Mighty Mites.

The Ottawa Lynx did just enough to sneak past the St. Joseph Mighty Mites, 9-8, at Mighty Mites Park. Ottawa designated hitter Pat Cureton, in particular, had a standout performance. Ricardo Flores, who is tied for 3rd in the SL1 in saves with 15, earned the save for Ottawa.

Ottawa used the timely hitting of Brian Nuzum to seize the win. The center fielder stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Lynx on top, 9-8. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"We'll relax tonight and get back after it tomorrow," Cureton said after the game.

The first-place Lynx improved to 58-28.
