Enthusiastic fans came out to support the home team at Ballpark of Austin.

In a close game at Ballpark of Austin, the Huntsville Rockets edged the St. Catharines Blue Jays, 3-2. Huntsville left fielder Rich Lewis stood apart with his performance. He was 2 for 3 with a home run, a triple, and a walk, while scoring 2 and driving in 2. Ruben Lopez picked up the win in relief for Huntsville, while Chase Harriger took the loss. Rich Sargent recorded the save. In save chances, he's now 6 for 7.

Lewis had a game-changing home run in the bottom of the eighth. On a first pitch curveball from Chase Harriger, he banged a solo home run to right, giving the Rockets a 3-2 lead. It was the 16th home run of the year for Lewis.

"Ah," said Lewis in a jubilant clubhouse, "the sweet smell of victory!."

With the win, the Rockets sit at 56-53.
