Lobster Defeat Browns, 5-4
Xian-gan Sima powered the Maine Lobster to a win over the Brooklyn Browns. The final score was 5-4. The Maine left fielder, who finished 3rd in the WC in triples with 9 last year, was phenomenal. He stroked 2 extra-base hits, including 1 home run and 1 double. John Liberty, the winner, is now 5-2. He struck out 4 and walked 0 over 5.1 innings, while allowing 2 runs on 6 hits. Maine, at 25-25, sits in third place in the Eastern Conference Benito Cossutta Division.

The game turned with two out in the top of the fourth. That's when Sima hit a 2-run double off Josh Hebrank. It propelled the Lobster into the lead, 3-1.

"Every time I go up there, I try and hit a ball hard," said Sima.
