Potomacs Keep Chugging, Win, 7-3
D.C. Potomacs starter Mel Stottlemyre Sr pitched effectively against the Erie Blackbirds at Jerry Uht Park. The right-hander spearheaded his team's 7-3 win. Stottlemyre Sr went 9 innings to notch the win. He scattered 7 hits, walked 2, and struck out 12. His record improves to 12-5. The Potomacs lead the WBL Rook National INDY RN - Northeast by 8 games.

D.C. used the timely hitting of Bill D Wilson to capture the win. The left fielder socked a 3-run home run in the top of the sixth inning to put the Potomacs ahead, 4-1. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a big one.

"It's Baseball 101," said D.C. manager John Parzych. "Fundamentals."
