Rockers Dispatch Torpedoes, 10-2
The performance of Max Benitez proved critical in helping Plymouth beat Long Island, 10-2. The Rockers third baseman was 2 for 4 with a home run, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 4. Picking up the win was Jim Unknown. He went 7 innings, allowing 2 runs on 5 hits. The right--hander struck out 8 and walked 3. With the win, Plymouth lifts its record to 5-5.

The Torpedoes had been locked in a 2-2 tie with the Rockers going into the bottom of the fifth inning. That changed quickly when the top prospect Paul Watson came to the plate. Watson hit a grand slam home run on a 2-2 fastball from Long Island hurler Alex Almanza. It was Watson's 1st home run of the year.

Long Island manager Victor Sepulveda called the blowout loss "nothing to write home about."
