Scorpions Done In By Captains, 9-6
The Tampa Bay Captains defeated the Syracuse Scorpions, 9-6. Right Fielder Justin Grasso deserved a large share of the credit. Grasso was 2 for 4 with a home run and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 3 for the Captains. Joe Bernard picked up the win, improving his season record to 11-7. He struck out 9 in 6 innings. At 38-68, the Captains claim third place in the American Conference Central Division.

Grasso had a consequential at-bat in the top of the fourth for the Captains. Coming up with runners on 2nd and 3rd and Tampa Bay trailing 4-3, he hit a 2-run single.

"We got the victory," said Grasso. "That's all that matters at the end of the day."
