Newport Loss Tarnishes Fine Game by Lendon
The Ottawa Lynx outlasted John Lendon and the Newport Unicorns, 9-7. Lendon was impressive in the loss. The Newport center fielder belted 2 home runs, while adding 4 RBI and scoring twice. The winner was Ottawa reliever Jim Unknown, now 1-0. The loser was Gary Lutz. The Unicorns drop to 7-10 and continue their inconsistent start to the 2024 season.

Ottawa used the timely hitting of Tony Moctezuma to seize the win. The center fielder stroked a 2-run single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Lynx on top, 9-7. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"We just try to have good at-bats, whether we're winning, losing, or tied," said Moctezuma.
