Mounties Victors, 7-4, at Whitby
Eláguila Stadia was the site for Northern Conference action featuring the Whitby Bats and Moncton Mounties.

The Moncton Mounties cut down the Whitby Bats by the score of 7-4, with the largest share of the credit going to right fielder Rico Ortiz. Ortiz went 4-5 with a triple and 3 singles. He drove in 3 runs and scored once for the Mounties. Losses have been few and far between for the Bats, who are now 17-6.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Ricky Cortes? The Moncton catcher had a run-scoring double in the top of the third inning to put the Mounties on top, 2-0. For the game, Cortes had 1 double and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"You can't get too high when things go well, or too low when things go bad. Right now, I'm just happy we got the win," Ortiz told the Moncton Times.
