Maine Defeated By Royals, 6-5
The Cincinnati Royals knocked off the Maine Pines, 6-5, in National Conference action at The Castle. Cincinnati pitcher and Martinez, California, native Josh Huggins had an outstanding performance. The win went to Colin Lambert in relief. His record improves to 3-1. Chris Hames took the loss. With the victory, the Royals upped their record to 47-36.

Cincinnati took a 6-5 lead on Eric Hayes's 18th double of the season. The 2-run double, which Hayes hit in the bottom of the seventh, left Maine pitcher Chris Hames visibly frustrated.

"It feels good to get this one," Huggins told the Cincinnati Citizen.
