  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E
Chicago Gangsters (2-12) 0 0 3 0 0 2 0 0 0 5 8 0
Tampa Bay Captains (7-7) 1 0 0 0 1 0 5 0 X 7 15 0
Losing Trend Continues for Chicago
The timely hitting of Alex Mendoza helped the Tampa Bay Captains down the Chicago Gangsters, 7-5. Mendoza was 1-1 with a home run, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once for the Captains. The win was credited to 28-year old right-handed pitcher Quincy Donaldson in relief. His record improves to 1-1. Andy Bennett took the loss. Carlos Barraza was called on to finish, recording his 1st save.

Had Sam Bingle not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the seventh, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and the bases loaded, Bingle hit a 2-run single. That made the score 7-5, in favor of the Captains.

"Whenever you can come through for your ball club, it's a great thing," said Mendoza.

Chicago, at 2-12, is off to a poor start in 2026.
