The Winchester Mountaineers picked up a win at Suns Field, dropping the Aurora Suns, 8-3. Jeremy Hewes, who is tied for 3rd in the E-AA with a 2.62 ERA, was the difference-maker. The winner was Hewes. He threw 7.0 innings of 3-hit ball. The loser was Gil Backos. The first-place Mountaineers have won 5 in a row.

Winchester used the hitting of Josh Botello to pick up the win. The right fielder clubbed a 2-run home run in the top of the third inning to put the Mountaineers on top, 3-2. For the game, Botello had 1 home run and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"We just can't get over the hump," said losing manager Oscar Figeroa.
