Fans saw a dandy of a game between the Medford Desperados and Little Rock Golden Gophers.

In a low-scoring game between the Medford Desperados and the Little Rock Golden Gophers, pitcher Antonio Rodriguez was the difference-maker. The Medford left-hander was tough as nails in the 3-2 Desperados win. Rodriguez, the winner, moves to 13-5. He threw 6 innings of 4-hit ball, while fanning 5 and giving up 3 walks.

In the bottom of the fifth, with the game tied, Little Rock allowed the Desperados to go up, 2-1, on a Little Rock error.

"We just didn't score enough runs to win," said Little Rock manager Jose Moreno.

With the win, the Desperados have a record of 79-51.
