Vientos Excels, Cincinnati Blows Out Boston
The Cincinnati Stars defeated the Boston Minutemen, 13-3. Doing his part was first baseman Mark Vientos, who was 4 for 5 with a home run and 2 doubles. He scored 3 times and drove in 4. With the win over Boston, the Stars improved to 62-52.

Xavier Edwards had a big 2-run double for the Stars in the bottom of the second inning. With Cincinnati leading 1-0 and runners on 1st and 3rd, he got a curveball from Max Fried, who finished 5th in the FL in ERA with 3.52 last year, and swatted a double to right-center. It was his 28th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Stars ahead, 3-0.

Boston manager Tony Byrne said: "We got ambushed. We just sashayed into the canyon and they were firing from both sides."
