Bats third baseman Randy Ruhl left his imprint on his team's 8-5 win over the Borrego Springs Rams. Ruhl went 2-4 with a home run and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 4 for Whitby in the contest. Tyler Rotella recorded the save, his 9th. The Bats improved their record to 109-31 by beating Borrego Springs.

Ruhl had a key at-bat in the top of the fourth to put Whitby in front, 5-3. With the bases loaded, he drew a walk, driving in 1 run off Borrego Springs pitcher Mario Canales.

"It doesn't matter if you're 10 games over .500 or 10 games under, it feels good to win," Ruhl told the Whitby News.
