Flying Tigers Collect 3-1 Win Over Mets
In a low-scoring contest, Lakeland pitcher Kyle Grossman was marvelous in his team's 3-1 win. Juan Valdéz earned the win after being summoned from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed 1 run on 3 hits in 3 innings. His record is now 2-2. The Flying Tigers saw their win-loss record go to 28-25. At the same time, the Mets fell to 31-22.

Lakeland used a timely hit from Sonny Williams to get the win. The center fielder stroked a 2-run double in the top of the 13th inning to put the Flying Tigers ahead, 3-1. It was his only hit in 6 at-bats, but it made an impact.

"You can't get too high when things go well, or too low when things go bad. Right now, I'm just happy we got the win," Williams told the Lakeland Gazette.
