Desperados Get One-Run Win at Little Rock
Medford left-hander Antonio Rodriguez helped his team edge Little Rock by the score of 3-2. Rodriguez kept the opposing lineup in check. Jesse Alexander earned his 2nd save, after closing out the game. Medford bumps their record to 24-7 with the win.

Garrett Buckner's at-bat in the top of the fourth was significant for the Desperados. Coming to the plate with runners on 1st and 3rd and Medford trailing 2-1, the Desperados right fielder grounded out, driving in 1 run.

"Our guys are never satisfied," said Medford manager Noah Alexander.
