Royals Hand Carolina 4-2 Loss
Dave Harvey, who finished 4th in the NC in wins with 18 in 2024, had a strong outing for the Cincinnati Royals against the Carolina Reapers at Reedy River Stadium. The right-hander was a big part of his team's 4-2 win. With their winning streak at 4, the Royals have raced to a strong start this season.

Cincinnati used a clutch at-bat from Heath Sherlock to capture the win. The third baseman hammered a 2-run home run in the top of the fourth inning to put the Royals ahead, 3-2. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"If you pitch well, you give yourself some opportunities," said Cincinnati manager Justin Aaron.
