Martínez 4-for-5 in Loons Win
A good performance from third baseman António Martínez helped the Minnesota Loons defeat the Asheville Highlanders, 8-2. Martínez was 4-5 with 2 doubles and 2 singles, while scoring 3 times and driving in 2 for the Loons. Minnesota starter Tony Smith was credited with the win after throwing 98 pitches over 6.2 innings. His record now stands at 1-2. Asheville's current losing streak is now 5 games.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Chae-ho Chong? The Minnesota shortstop had a 2-run double in the top of the sixth inning to put the Loons on top, 5-2. For the game, Chong had 1 double and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"Nice to tuck this win away," said Chong.
