Dedicated fans weathered the storm to watch their beloved Lasers beat the Matadors.

Eugene Ricci earned the win after being brought in from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed 1 run on 2 hits in 3.1 innings. His record is now 2-2.

With scoring opportunities rare, the Lasers had to cash in when they had the chance. One such opportunity presented itself in the bottom of the second, when center fielder Marcos Valle hit a 2-run single. The single came off John Schwartz and made the score 2-0, Lasers. Valle was 2 for 4 with a double, while adding 2 RBI.

Nashville manager Kenny McElhaney called it "a pretty good win."

The first-place Lasers lifted their record to 70-52.
