Huntsville Downs St. Catharines, 4-3
Huntsville Rockets starter Mike Bruce was locked-in. He led his team to a win over the St. Catharines Blue Jays, 4-3. Bruce yielded 1 run over 7.1 innings to notch the win. He scattered 6 hits, walked 3, and struck out 7. His record improves to 3-3. The Blue Jays, at 24-37, have lost 4 in a row.

Huntsville took a 4-1 lead on Eddie Sandoval's 3rd home run of the season. The 2-run home run, which Sandoval hit in the bottom of the seventh, left St. Catharines pitcher Rich Zavala visibly frustrated.

"It's nice to get the results when you're feeling good and throwing the ball well," said Bruce after the game.
