Bellflowers Get Close Win Over Pirates, 9-8
Behind the hitting of Jaden Johnson, the Buffalo Bellflowers defeated the Saint Pierre and Miquelon Pirates, 9-8. Johnson hit 3 home runs, while adding 4 RBI and scoring three times for the Bellflowers. Yes, it was a win for Buffalo; but their 30-68 mark is nothing to crow about.

In the bottom of the ninth, with the score tied, Johnson hammered a solo home run to win it for Buffalo.

"This place went bonkers at the end," Johnson said.
