Action Around the FLB: July 6

 In a surprise shutout, the Charleston Swamp Foxes handed Portland their first loss of the season. Officials had been worried about this series due to the effects of Hurricane Arthur, but fortunately the impact has been minimal and the field was in much better shape than the night prior which was a bog-fest. Elsewhere, Bracebridge remains the sole unbeaten franchise after taking out a struggling Washington team. Ravens fans were not hushed about their displeasure in their team's early season performance either. The Wisconsin-Quad City series has been one of the more entertaining matchups so far this season. The Randalls have already taken the series, but the games have been close and competitive, and even rowdy at some points. One River Rats' fan had to be escorted from the stadium after he lept onto the field in the bottom of the 5th and confronted the third base umpire after a questionable call. There are all the signs of a rivalry in the making between these two.
