Stars Lose, 5-4; No End to Nosedive
The Memphis Blues knocked off the Las Vegas Stars, 5-4, at Cashman Field. Ron Washington was a big reason Memphis won. The third baseman was 3-4 with 2 doubles, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 2. Frank LaCorte got the save, the 3rd for him this season. The win puts the Blues at 54-75, while the Stars drop to 70-59.

Washington had a consequential at-bat in the top of the second for the Blues. Coming up with runners on 1st and 3rd and Memphis trailing 1-0, he hit a 2-run double.

"Losing feels worse," said Las Vegas manager Vinegar Bend Mizell, "than winning feels good."
