Blue Jays Win, 7-3, at Tampa
The St. Catharines Blue Jays defeated the Tampa Capitals, 7-3, in part because of catcher Jim William. William went 3 for 3 with 3 singles and a walk. He scored 2 runs for the Blue Jays. Chris Porter notched his 2nd save in 4 chances. St. Catharines is now 66-40.

St. Catharines used a clutch at-bat from Kevin Dobson to capture the win. The designated hitter hammered a grand slam home run in the top of the second inning to put the Blue Jays ahead, 6-1. It was his lone hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

Dobson attributed the win to "everyone pulling their weight."
