From Last Night– In the Ten Team Atlantic League, the High Point Dirty Birds split a doubleheader as Delino DeShields, Jr. hit his first home run of the summer for a 6-0 win over Charleston. In the nightcap, Rusber Estrada stroked his 9th long ball as the catcher from Gascara, Venezuela leads the league.
Also, right handed hurler Hayden Mutz, a senior from AIC, fanned five and tossed 6 innings for the Vermont Lake Monsters to secure the win.
Summer League action returns tomorrow with openers in the Northwoods and Western Canadian Leagues.
