On the final day of the first half, the Dayton Dragons (39-27) swept a doubleheader, got help with a Lake County loss, and clinched the Midwest League East Division first-half title — securing a playoff berth in September and home-field advantage.
Dayton finished the first half red-hot, winning 5 straight games and 8 of their final 9. To cap off the night, the Dragons tied a franchise record with 6 home runs in Game 2 while also drawing 11 walks (every player except leadoff hitter Carlos Sanchez walked). The second game was started by Cardinals No. 9 prospect Tanner Franklin, who Dayton tagged for 7 runs.
