Crawdads Get Thrilling 5-4 Win
The Hickory Crawdads did just enough to secure a victory over the Ann Arbor Z's, 5-4, in 12 innings at Crawdad Park. Nobody did more than pitcher Ian McSorley. With the win over Ann Arbor, the Crawdads improved to 82-44.

Batting in the bottom of the 12th, 36-year old second baseman Michael Mendez had a real shot to win the game. Ann Arbor pitcher Joe Woolverton was determined not to let it happen. But with one out, Mendez hit a run-scoring single. The Crawdads had a walk-off triumph.

"Always feels extra good winning this kind of game," said McSorley.
