Werewolves Score Late to Nip Bowsers, 5-4
The London Werewolves faced a tough opponent in Columbus pitcher Ernesto Correa, but did just enough to pull out the victory at Werewolves Ballpark by a final score of 5-4. Correa went 7 innings and allowed no runs. Rich Abril earned the win after being brought in from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed 1 run on 2 hits in 1.2 innings. His record is now 2-0. Ricardo Sanchez earned the save, his 1st, for the Werewolves.

London took a 5-3 lead on Rafael Miranda's 3rd home run of the season. The 2-run home run, which Miranda hit in the bottom of the eighth, left Columbus pitcher Cody Knipple visibly frustrated.

London manager Steve Warzecha commended his team for "banging out a nice win."

The loss drops Columbus to 3-8.
