Mad Ants Find a Way to Win
The Portland Mad Ants outlasted the Hartford Matadors in an extra-inning thriller.

The Portland Mad Ants rode a solid performance from 25-year-old starting pitcher Jaheim Jennings to a win, beating the Hartford Matadors, 1-0, at Ballpark of Tacoma. The third-place Mad Ants bumped their record to 55-57.

In his 94-pitch effort, Jennings allowed no runs on 1 hit over 7.1 innings. He walked 4 and struck out 4.

"This kind of game is tough on the heart," said winning manager Will Berman.
