Bats Slap 6-4 Loss on Plymouth
The Whitby Bats withstood a fine game by Plymouth center fielder Ben Baker at Eláguila Stadia, to upend the Rockers, 6-4. Baker hit 2 home runs. He drove in 3 runs and scored twice. Mike Fernandez earned the save for Whitby, his 1st of the year. The Bats, now 21-5, have stormed out of the gates.

Sean Custis had a big solo home run for the Bats in the bottom of the sixth inning. With Whitby leading 4-3 and the bases empty, he sized up a fastball from 18-year old right-handed pitcher Jim Unknown and punished it. The result was his 4th home run of the season, which put the Bats on top, 5-3.

"It's always a heck of a lot easier to get to sleep after a win," Custis told the Whitby Times. "I know I'll rest easy tonight."
