Rams Win Squeaker, 3-2, Over Bats
Borrego Springs beat Whitby at Eláguila Stadia, escaping with a 3-2 win in 13 innings. The win in large part was due to left fielder Luis Ortega. He was 4-6 with a home run, a double, and 2 singles. He scored 2 runs. The Rams saw their win-loss record go to 58-14. At the same time, the Bats fell to 45-27.

Ortega had a game-changing home run in the top of the 13th. On a full count fastball from Abel Bults, he banged a solo home run to left-center, giving the Rams a 3-2 lead. It was the 13th home run of the year for Ortega.

"It's a satisfying feeling, to win like we did," said Ortega.
