Jayden Howard was instrumental in his team's 9-4 triumph over the Long Island Torpedoes. The center fielder was 3 for 6 with a home run and 2 singles. He scored 3 runs for the Buffalo Bellflowers. The winner was Israel Parez, who threw 73 pitches over 5.1 innings. The right-hander was charged with 1 run on 3 hits. Long Island falls to 6-15.

Buffalo won the game in part because of Nick Owens. The left fielder ripped a solo home run in the top of the first inning to put the Bellflowers ahead, 2-0. For the game, Owens had 1 double and 1 home run in 5 at-bats.

"Hustle and hard work is a big part of our success," said Howard. "Those qualities define our team."
