Moonshiners Topple Whalers with Late Rally
Asheville Moonshiners starter Chan Ho Park was in a rhythm all game. He led his team to a win over the Hartford Whalers, 5-2. Mike Draper picked up the save for Asheville, his 8th of the year. At 20-16, the Moonshiners are currently third in the Atlantic Southeast.

The contest featured some late-game dramatics from Asheville designated hitter Yamil Benitez. In the top of the ninth inning, with no one out and the bases empty, Benitez hit a solo home run to help Asheville seize the win.

"I found a nice groove out there," said Park.
