Ambassadors Rally Late to Clip Huntsville
Ken Guzman did all he could to help his team win. In the end, though, it wasn't enough to keep the Huntsville Rockets from being beaten, 3-2, to the Fremont Ambassadors at Ballpark of Austin. Guzman went 3 for 4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. Fremont reliever Jim Unknown picked up the win, raising his record to 1-0. Mike Bruce was tagged with the loss. Today's win puts Fremont at 27-62, while Huntsville falls to 46-43.

Fremont used the timely hitting of Francisco O'Brien to seize the win. The third baseman stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Ambassadors on top, 3-2. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"It's not about individual awards," O'Brien told a Fremont News reporter after the game. "It's about winning championships. That's what we play for."
