Bats Squeeze By Plymouth, 6-5
Due in large part to designated hitter Scott Skidmore, the Whitby Bats sunk the Plymouth Rockers, 6-5. Skidmore went 2-3 with a home run, a triple, and a walk, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. Angel Alvarez recorded the save for Whitby, his 1st of the season. Whitby is third in the Northern Conference West Division with a record of 51-41.

Whitby went up, 6-5, on Terry Hetzel's 4th home run of the season. The solo home run, which Hetzel hit in the top of the eighth, left Plymouth pitcher Sean Finch shaking his head.

"If we play like this, we can win a lot of games," Hetzel told the Whitby Chronicle.
