Blue Jays Suffer One-Run Loss at Fremont
The Fremont Ambassadors faced a tough opponent in St. Catharines pitcher Fabian Ruiz, but did just enough to pull out the victory at Ballpark of Fremont by a final score of 4-3. Ruiz went 6.1 innings and allowed 3 runs. Jim Unknown came out of the bullpen to earn the win. The right-hander allowed no runs on 2 hits in 3 innings. His record now stands at 1-0. Fremont, with the win, sits at 28-62.

Alex Cruz went 1-4 for Fremont. With one out and the game tied in the bottom of the seventh inning, Cruz had a clutch at-bat. Facing St. Catharines hurler Jay Yeiser, he grounded out, driving in 1 run to give the Ambassadors a 4-3 lead.

"We ground out the win," said Cruz. "That's all that matters."
