Road Win Lifts Mexico City to 1-0 Lead in CS
The Mexico City Aztecs powered past the hometown Dollywood Partons, 7-5, in the opener of the League Championship Series at Dolly Parton Ballpark. Mexico City center fielder Paul Nicolopoulos hit 2 home runs. He drove in 4 runs and scored twice for the hosts. The Aztecs now lead the series 1-0.

Mexico City used a clutch at-bat from Omar Snell to capture the win. The right fielder hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the third inning to put the Aztecs ahead, 3-0. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"I just tried to see the ball and put a good swing on it," said Snell.

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Dolly Parton Ballpark in Pigeon Forge.
