Desperados Thwart Blue Jays, 3-1
The Santa Rosa Desperados and St. Catharines Blue Jays played a tight game with the hosts claiming a hard-fought win.

Santa Rosa turned a fine outing from starter Ken Fox into a victory over the St. Catharines Blue Jays at Keelhaulers Ballpark. The final score was 3-1. Fox, the winner, moves to 2-0. He threw 7 innings of 4-hit ball, while fanning 7 and giving up 2 walks.

In the top of the ninth, Raul Rivera stood in the box, looking for a pitch to hammer. The Blue Jays were trailing 3-1, but had runners on 1st and 2nd. That's when Matt Westerman made a terrific pitch and Rivera lined out. Gone was the dream of a St. Catharines comeback.

Santa Rosa has an impressive 23-8 record.
