For the second straight night, FredNat pitching held the Lynchburg Hillcats to just one run, and the FredNats won their 10th game in the last 11 with a 4-1 victory on a Firework Friday night. Jacob Young hit a leadoff home run for his first career professional homer, and Andry Lara earned his first home win of the season.
Young homered on the first batter of the game for the FredNats, a no-doubter to left field. Leandro Emiliani drove in the second run of the game in the 4th inning after a Jeremy De La Rosa double, and then De La Rosa himself drove in an insurance run in the 8th inning with his second double of the game. The 4th run was more insurance, and it was scored by De La Rosa on a wild pitch.
