Paints Drop Mighty Mites, 6-3, with Late Score
The Aurora Paints handed the St. Joseph Mighty Mites a 6-3 defeat at Paints Park. Right Fielder Bob Mauser starred for Aurora. He went 1-3 with a home run and a walk. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2. Brayden Snell was the winner in relief. His record is now 4-3. The losing pitcher was Jim Unknown. Eric White wrapped it up, recording his 2nd save.

A defensive lapse proved costly in the contest. In the bottom of the eighth, with the game tied, Dave Rotolo was at the plate when Aurora scored 1 on an error. The miscue enabled the Paints to go in front, 4-3.

"Bob was ready to go. Big day for him," said Aurora manager Orlando Salinas.

The Paints go to 28-40, putting them 4th in the Sub League 1 Central Division.
