Unicorns Win at Home, 4-0
The home crowd had a good time watching the Medford Desperados and Newport Unicorns get after it.

Newport pitcher Alex Almanza did his part in helping his team beat the Medford Desperados, 4-0. The right-hander kept opposing batters from doing too much damage. Almanza picked up the win for Newport, going 6 innings. He gave up no runs on 2 hits. He now sports a record of 2-4.

Newport took a 2-0 lead on John Lendon's 10th double of the season. The run-scoring double, which Lendon hit in the bottom of the seventh, left Medford pitcher Graham Renner visibly frustrated.

In postgame comments to the Newport Bulletin, Lendon said, "If the effort is there, the wins will come."

Today's win puts Newport at 19-24, while Medford falls to 30-13.
