Whitby got a strong outing from Billy Shields as the Bats defeated the Moriarty Suns, 3-1, at Eláguila Stadia. In 5.2 innings, Shields surrendered 5 hits, while striking out 7 and walking 0. He allowed 1 run. Pat Nicholas earned the save for Whitby, his 12th of the year.

The Suns had been locked in a 1-1 tie with the Bats going into the bottom of the fifth inning. That changed quickly when the 22-year old right fielder Juan Garza came to the plate. Garza hit a 2-run home run on a 2-0 fastball from Moriarty hurler Antonio Rodriguez. It was Garza's 51st home run of the year.

Shields said afterward that his team has grown over the course of the season, adding: "It feels good when a plan comes together."

Whitby has now won 4 straight.
