Lasers Pull Out Late-Game Win, 2-1
The El Paso Chupacabras got a superb performance from pitcher Taylor Motyl. Still, it wasn't enough to beat Nashville. The Lasers won the game, 2-1. Motyl threw 6.1 innings of 2-hit ball. Nashville reliever Malcolm Freeman picked up the win, raising his record to 3-5. Armando Rivera was tagged with the loss. The Lasers improved to 40-34.

Nashville got a game-changing hit from Steve Fites. The left fielder blasted a solo home run in the bottom of the ninth inning to win the game. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a winner.

"We couldn't have scripted it any better," Fites said in his postgame press conference.
