Blue Jays Trip Flyers, 5-3, in Extra Innings
The St. Catharines Blue Jays defeated the Newark Flyers, 5-3, in part because of third baseman Allen Baker. Baker was 1 for 1 with a home run. He drove in 2 runs and scored once for the Blue Jays. St. Catharines reliever Mike Dineen snagged the win, upping his record to 2-3. Aaron Wakefield shouldered the loss. The Blue Jays have an impressive 70-44 record.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the 13th. With one out, Baker hit a slider from Aaron Wakefield for a 2-run home run. The Blue Jays, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"Winning in the last at-bat, there's nothing else like it," said Baker.
