Pelicans Edge Past Millers, 8-7
The New Orleans Pelicans took Minneapolis pitcher Scott May's best shot and still were able to claim a win at Higgins Park. The final score had New Orleans getting past the Millers, 8-7. May went 5 innings and allowed 1 run, striking out 3. Cristián Cortéz, now 5-1, was credited with the win in 1 innings of relief. He allowed no runs on 1 hit, while striking out 1 and walking 1. The Pelicans now own a record of 49-30.

A crucial at-bat came with runners on 1st and 2nd and one out in the bottom of the seventh inning. That's when center fielder Michael Smith, who is tied for 4th in the PL in hits with 96, hit a 3-run home run. The Pelicans went on to win.

"Exhilarating win," said Smith.
