The home team gave the crowd at Ballpark of Medford something to cheer about.

Antonio Rodriguez, who is tied for 5th in the SL1 with a 1.20 WHIP, was the winning pitcher. Over 7 innings, he allowed 3 runs on 5 hits, with 1 walk and 2 strikeouts.

With Medford leading 4-3 in the bottom of the sixth, Helgason hit a run-scoring single off Greensboro hurler Bobby Rodriguez. It was the 61st hit of the season for Helgason and put his team ahead, 5-3.

Helgason told the media after that game that the mood in the clubhouse is "extremely positive" after a win like that.
