Mighty Mites Need Extra Innings to Top Unicorns, 8-7
The St. Joseph Mighty Mites defeated the Newport Unicorns, 8-7, in 13 innings. Much of the credit belonged to center fielder Scott Gabel, who was 2-5 with a home run, a double, and a walk. He drove in 5 runs and scored once for the Mighty Mites. St. Joseph reliever Hedde Castillo picked up the win, while Manuel Pena took the loss for Newport. The Mighty Mites go to 18-63 with the win.

Henry Ventura took Newport hurler Manuel Pena deep in the top of the 13th. His solo home run put the Mighty Mites on top, 8-7. In all, Ventura had 2 singles in addition to the home run, while going 3 for 6.

"We had a chance to win," said Newport manager Victor Sepulveda, "but we didn't get it done."
