Griego Excels in 12-6 Thunder Bay Win
Juan Griego made an impact in the 12-6 Thunder Bay win over Manchester. Griego, who is tied for 10th in the RR in triples with 2, went 3-3 with a triple, a double, and 2 walks. He scored 2 times and drove in 3. Thunder Bay pitcher Orlando Cuevas earned the win, hiking his record to 1-1. Kesanori Kobayashi suffered the loss. At 41-11, Thunder Bay is in first place in the RCL R John Mayberry Division.

Thunder Bay used a well-timed hit by Roberto Perez to capture the win. The right fielder socked a 2-run double in the top of the fourth inning to put the Lighting ahead, 4-2. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it was important.

"I just tried to make good contact," said Griego.
