Desperados Take Down Blue Jays, 9-8
The Santa Rosa Desperados defeated the St. Catharines Blue Jays, 9-8. Shortstop Cesar Sarate deserved a large share of the credit. Sarate went 2-2 with a home run, a double, and a walk, while scoring 2 and driving in 2 for the Desperados. The triumph puts Santa Rosa at 71-35 for the season.

The decisive blow was delivered by Rafael Farrand in the bottom of the ninth when he hit a 3-run home run off fireballing right-hander Andy Mahoney to win the game for Santa Rosa. The home crowd went nuts.

"We had some nice at-bats at the right time," said Desperados manager Angel Cano.
