Bulldogs Collect 5-3 Win Over Firecats
The Hamilton Bulldogs knocked off the Hialeah Firecats, 5-3, in Western AA action at Firecats Ballpark. Hamilton pitcher and Arvada, Colorado, native Richard Alter had an outstanding performance. Hamilton reliever Jesus Garcia picked up the win, upping his record to 1-0. Juan Rincon absorbed the loss. Hamilton is now 4-2.

The game was at a stalemate until designated hitter Todd Stevens came to bat in the top of the 11th. Facing Hialeah pitcher Juan Rincon, he hit a first pitch splitter for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Hamilton on top, 4-3.

"The only difference is executing pitches and not executing pitches," said Alter. "When you don't execute, you get beat. When you execute, you usually give your team a chance to win."
