Mounties Absorb 4-3 Home Loss
The Buffalo Bellflowers did just enough to sneak past the Moncton Mounties, 4-3, at Mapleton Yards. Buffalo pitcher Daniel Hernandez, in particular, had a standout performance. Hernandez picked up the win for Buffalo, going 7 innings. He gave up 3 runs on 7 hits. He now sports a record of 8-3. The save was credited to Bobby Simpson, his 14th.

Buffalo used a timely hit from Alex Melo to get the win. The shortstop stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the seventh inning to put the Bellflowers ahead, 4-3. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it made an impact.

Melo said his team "played with focus."

Buffalo, at 60-25, is 5 games up in the Northern Conference East Division.
