Capitals Held in Check by Blue Jays, Lose, 3-1
|
St. Catharines turned a fine outing from starter Fabian Ruiz into a victory over the Tampa Capitals at Capitals Ballpark. The final score was 3-1. Ruiz, now 5-2, was the winner. In 7 innings, he gave up 6 hits, while striking out 8, walking 1, and allowing no runs. The first-place Blue Jays lifted their record to 75-41.
Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Dustin Merkley? The St. Catharines first baseman had a run-scoring double in the top of the first inning to put the Blue Jays on top, 1-0. For the game, Merkley had 1 double and 1 single in 5 at-bats.
"At the end of the day, it's always about your starting pitcher," said St. Catharines skipper Walt DeRosier.
