Mermen Swat Razor Sharks, 12-1
A good performance from left fielder Hiromichi Sato helped the Corpus Christi Mermen defeat the Mesa Razor Sharks, 12-1. Sato was 3 for 4 with 2 home runs and a walk, while scoring 4 times and driving in 4 for the Mermen. Chad Bendon picked up the win with 8.2 innings of work. He allowed 1 run on 5 hits, while walking 1 and striking out 9. On the season, he is now 1-1. The Razor Sharks drop to 5-7, as their stumbling start to the 2025 season continues.

Corpus Christi used the hitting of Cameron Witt to pick up the win. The catcher clubbed a 2-run home run in the top of the second inning to put the Mermen on top, 3-0. For the game, Witt had 1 home run and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"It doesn't matter if you're 10 games over .500 or 10 games under, it feels good to win," Witt told the Corpus Christi Citizen.
