Ross Detwiler was tagged with the loss. The win lifted the Greensboro record to 27-24.

Phil Nevin had a big 2-run home run for the Grasshoppers in the bottom of the fifth inning.

It was his 10th home run of the season, and more importantly, it put the Grasshoppers ahead, 4-0.

"We'll enjoy this win," said Valentine. "But there's more we hope to accomplish."
