Sligar Helps Invaders Beat Royals, 5-4
Fans witnessed a whale of a game between the Oakland Invaders and Cincinnati Royals.

The 5-4 Oakland win over Cincinnati was due in large part to Mike Sligar. The Invaders catcher went 3-5 with 2 home runs. He drove in 3 runs and scored twice. Jared Trombley was the winning pitcher. Over 5.2 innings, he allowed 3 runs on 4 hits, with 1 walk and 9 strikeouts.

Mitch Jarka was 1-5 for Oakland. The 27-year old center fielder had a key at-bat in the top of the fourth. With one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 3-3 tie with a run-scoring ground out off Andy Dooley. It was his 28th RBI of the season.

"Nice to see our side come away with the win," Sligar said after the game.

The win gives Oakland a season record of 43-42.
