Rotters Lose to Mermen in Walk-Off
The Riverside Rotters could not turn a fine performance from pitcher Carl Bennett into a win. Instead, the Corpus Christi Mermen prevailed, 5-4. Bennett threw 6.2 innings of 3-hit ball. Carlos Orosco, 3-0, earned the win in relief. He allowed no runs on no hits in 2 innings. The Mermen win now puts them at 62-65.

The defining moment came in the bottom of the ninth for Corpus Christi. That's when Danny McKibben hit a solo home run off 22-year old left-handed pitcher Ben Foster to win the game. The home crowd went wild.

"This joint was rocking," said McKibben.
