Buffalo Gets 8-3 Win
The Buffalo Bellflowers beat the Long Island Torpedoes, 8-3, at Centerville Grounds. The win was due in part to center fielder Jayden Howard, who went 2-5 with a home run. He scored 3 times and drove in 2. The win brings the Bellflowers to 18-5, a promising start as the team looks to return to the playoffs.

Buffalo used the hitting of Mario Gutierrez to pick up the win. The designated hitter clubbed a 2-run home run in the top of the second inning to put the Bellflowers on top, 2-0. For the game, Gutierrez had 1 home run and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

Howard called the win "a team effort."
