Diamond Dawgs Finish Strong Against Lightning

Winter Park, Fla. – The Winter Park Diamond Dawgs avoided a three-game sweep Saturday night, defeating the Leesburg Lightning 3-1 at Alfond Stadium. 

Winter Park took control early, scoring twice in the opening inning. Roberto Odor reached on a walk, stole second, and scored on Hutson Guinn's RBI single to left. Garrett Frost later crossed the plate on a passed ball to give the Diamond Dawgs a 2-0 advantage. 

The Lightning threatened throughout the night but were limited to four hits by the Winter Park pitching staff. Daniel Despaine led the offense with a pair of hits, while Dylan Green and Charlie Keller each added a single. 

Leesburg broke through in the seventh inning after Hayden Gustavson reached on a hit-by-pitch and advanced into scoring position. Despaine followed with a single before Marcello Cortale brought Gustavson home with an RBI groundout, trimming the deficit to 2-1. 

Winter Park answered in the eighth with an insurance run. Roberto Odor singled, stole second, and came around to score on Guinn's second RBI single of the night, extending the lead to 3-1. 

Despite the loss, the Lightning received another strong effort from the bullpen. Miguel Figueroa tossed 3.2 scoreless innings with four strikeouts, while Lucas Perez added a scoreless seventh inning. Cole Jones allowed an unearned run in the eighth. 

Logan Baisley took the loss despite allowing just one earned run over 2.1 innings. 

Leesburg took two of three games from the Diamond Dawgs and will return home on Monday with a matchup against the Orlando Snappers. The Lightning will take on the Snappers on Monday, July 13th at 7:00 PM at Pat Thomas Stadium.
