Lynx Triumphant, 7-0, at Naturals Grounds
Ottawa Lynx starter Carlos Balderrama was dealing. He helped his team knock off the Greensboro Naturals, 7-0. Balderrama, now 5-0, was the winner. In 6.1 innings, he gave up 6 hits, while striking out 2, walking 1, and allowing no runs. Ottawa has an impressive 24-7 record.

It could have been a different outcome for Ottawa, had it not been for Gavin Williams, the 22-year old third baseman . Williams contributed a run-scoring walk in the top of the fourth inning to put Ottawa up, 3-0.

"I think it just wasn't our night," said Greensboro skipper Nick Kendrick.
