Carolina North All-Stars Beat Carolina South All Stars 2-0 In All-Star Game

As the first half of the season comes to a close for the Carolina League, the best players in the league came to play at Hayley Toyota field in Salem, Virginia for the annual Carolina All-Star game on Tuesday night.

While both sides put on a good show and effort, it was the Carolina North All-Stars who took home the victory.

The North All-Stars scored early and that was enough for the North pitchers to carry the win all the way home.

The North All-Stars got their winning runs in the 1st by Salem Red Sox’s Third Baseman Michael Chavis hitting a double and knocking home Wilmington Blue Rocks Shortstop Nicky Lopez and Frederick Keys Right Fielder Austin Hays.

Lopez started the inning with a single to left field, then stole second base and went to third on a wild pitch.

Then, Austin Hays walked that set up Chavis RBI double.

After the first inning, it was all pitching for both sides and nobody could get a run past the All-Star pitchers on either team.

Chavis would be named Carolina League All-Star Game MVP for his RBI double in the first inning of the game.
