Tailgators Come Up Short at Portland, 2-1
In a low-scoring game between the Portland Mad Ants and the Chesapeake Tailgators, pitcher Eric Zane was the difference-maker. The Portland right-hander was tough as nails in the 2-1 Mad Ants win. In 7 innings, Zane surrendered 5 hits, while striking out 7 and walking 2. He allowed 1 run. Kevin Kovach finished to wrap up his 26th save.

Portland took a 2-1 lead on Alex Aime's 17th double of the season. The run-scoring double, which Aime hit in the bottom of the seventh, left Chesapeake pitcher Nick Douglass visibly frustrated.

"Good ballgame," said Chesapeake manager Dave York. "But we came up on the short end."

The Mad Ants sit in third place in the Stars Conference West Division with a record of 60-60.
