Ghosts Spill Royals, 3-2
In a low-scoring contest between the Laredo Ghosts and the Montreal Royals, 22-year old right-handed pitcher Vic Lucero proved to be the difference. The Laredo right-hander earned props for his performance in the 3-2 Ghosts win. Ethan Yarbrough was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 28 of 33 save opportunities. The win elevated the Ghosts to 68-67.

Laredo used the timely hitting of Chris McNicholas to seize the win. The center fielder stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the seventh inning to put the Ghosts on top, 3-1. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"Winning the game is always the first objective," Lucero said.
