All five games were played last night once again- shocking, I know. The forecast makes it look like we won’t have rain at least through Wednesday, making those games most likely to happen, too. So get out there and watch a game somewhere!

Results from last night:

Results

• Winchester 8, Waynesboro 4 (3 wins in a row for Royals)
• Strasburg 8, Woodstock 6 (Also 3 wins in a row for Express)
• Purcellville 9, Front Royal 3
• Covington 4, Charlottesville 1 (3 in a row for Jacks, too. Jacks were 1 game up on the Sox before the game; now the lead’s 2)
• Staunton 4, Harrisonburg 3

Hitter of the Day

Sergio Lopez had his fingerprints all over the Cannons’ win last night. He hit a 3-run home run in the 3rd inning, and an RBI triple in the 5th. He went 2-5, with 3 runs and those 4 RBIs in Purcellville’s 9-3 win over a very strong Front Royal Cardinals team. This summer, Sergio is hitting 238/393/524 so far, after a spring for St. Thomas in which he hit 351/453/675 with 15 home runs in 228 at-bats.
