Claws lead North to win

The Lakewood BlueClaws sent 4 men to the S.A.L. All Star game and got big contributions from all of them. Michael Taylor had a single and a double, driving in a run, and Mike Durant made his return to action, as the DH for the North squad. Durant, down since May 20, did not miss a beat, singling and belting a 2-run home run. Joel Naughton also contributed with a single and run scored and Drew Naylor pitched a 1-2-3 inning, striking out 2 of the 3 hitters he faced. In all, a very successful evening for Lakewood in the North's 13-4 victory.

In another HomeSide note from Monday, Chris Roberson hit a game-winning, walk-off home run in the bottom of the 11th inning to give Norfolk a victory over Scranton. It was Robey's 3rd dinger of the year.
