The St. Catharines Blue Jays polished off the Cottage City Cannonballers by the score of 8-1. The largest share of the credit belonged to first baseman Hugo Merino. Merino went 2-5 with a home run and a double, while scoring 2 and driving in 4 for the Blue Jays. Cottage City, at 4-17, has had a dismal start to the season.

"Hugo was ready to go. Big day for him," said St. Catharines manager Freddy Coss.
