Extra-Inning Win by Matadors Over Royals
Well, that's how to end a game in style.

Chris Flowers was a major contributor to the 10-9 Hartford win over Montreal. The Matadors second baseman was 3-4 with a home run, 2 singles, and 2 walks. He scored 4 times and drove in 2. Hartford reliever Mike Hernandez was the winner. His record is now 9-4. The losing pitcher was Jonathan Bell.

The clutch at-bat came in the bottom of the 11th inning, when Hartford center fielder John Benson, facing Jonathan Bell, had a run-scoring sacrifice fly. It gave the Matadors the 10-9 win.

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

Hartford, at 89-52, is 10½ games up in the Stars Conference West Division.
