Lasers Capture Close Win
The Nashville Lasers and Montreal Royals played an exciting game.

Nashville registered a win at Lasers Ballpark by beating the Montreal Royals, 4-3. Pitcher Pat Higginbotham was one reason why the Lasers triumphed. Arturo Pintado got credit for the win, improving to 3-5. He allowed no runs on 3 hits in 1.2 innings. Picking up the save was Malcolm Freeman, his 20th.

Nashville took a 4-2 lead on Tanner Brown's 5th home run of the season. The 2-run home run, which Brown hit in the bottom of the eighth, left Montreal pitcher Pedro Rodriguez visibly frustrated.

"We did a lot of things right," said Higginbotham.

The Nashville win streak is now 3 games.
