Lotz goes 4-for-5 as Whistlers Squeeze Past Dallas
Both teams had their chances, but the Boston Whistlers eventually prevailed.

A 3-RBI performance from Tim Lotz, who finished 5th in the AC in RBI with 100 last year, helped the Boston Whistlers beat the Dallas Dragons, 8-7. Boston reliever Ricky Garay picked up the win, upping his record to 1-1. Nick McGettigan took the loss. Blake Bryant picked up his 2nd save of the season.

With the game tied in the top of the ninth, Lotz hit a run-scoring single to put his team on top.

"We'll hit the hot tub in good spirits tonight," said Lotz.

Boston's record now stands at 21-27, placing them first in the American Conference Central Division.
