Cincinnati picked up a win at The Castle, bumping off the Tampa Bay Captains, 7-2. Pitcher Juan Fernandez was a major reason the Royals emerged victorious. For the Captains, the loss makes their record 9-18.

In the bottom of the 3rd, Cincinnati took the lead on a 2-run single by Eric Hayes. At the time, the Royals were trailing 1-0, but Hayes's hit with two outs against Tampa Bay pitcher Edwin Montez put them in front, 2-1.

"If I go out there and help the team win, that's all you can do," said Fernandez.
