Storm Edged by Lake Monsters, 5-2
Vermont and West Island duked it out and the Lake Monsters came out victorious.

Riding the 3-hit performance of the 23-year old center fielder Ernesto Mercado, the Vermont Lake Monsters stopped the West Island Storm, 5-2, in 9 innings. Vermont reliever Chris Thomas was the winner. His record is now 1-0. The losing pitcher was Carlos Gallegos. The save went to Alfredo Domínguez, number 1 for him.

The game was at a stalemate until pinch hitter Paul King came to bat in the bottom of the eighth. Facing West Island pitcher Paul Garza, he hit a first pitch fastball for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Vermont on top, 3-2.

"I just tried to make good contact," said King.

With the win, the Lake Monsters have a record of 26-20.
