Bellflowers Roll to 8-2 Win Over Torpedoes
The Buffalo Bellflowers downed the Long Island Torpedoes, 8-2, at Centerville Grounds. Adam Larson led the way, going 2-for-4 for Buffalo. The winning pitcher was Dave Figley. He's now 4-2. He went 7 innings, allowing 2 runs on 5 hits for the Bellflowers. The Bellflowers have an impressive 77-42 record.

The Torpedoes had been locked in a 2-2 tie with the Bellflowers going into the top of the sixth inning. That changed quickly when the 18-year old second baseman Josh Flowers came to the plate. Flowers hit a 2-run home run on a first pitch curveball from Long Island hurler Jesus Perez. It was Flowers's 7th home run of the year.

Said losing manager Victor Sepulveda: "Give the Bellflowers credit. They played a better game than we did."
