Rockets Capture Close Win
The Rockets grabbed a win, 2-1, at Engineers Ballpark, overcoming a fine effort from St. Catharines pitcher Scott Staffieri. Staffieri went 6.1 innings and allowed no runs. By defeating St. Catharines, the second-place Rockets improved to 70-54.

Huntsville used a timely hit from Jay Anagnost to get the win. The designated hitter stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the ninth inning to put the Rockets ahead, 1-0. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it made an impact.

"Our guys are never satisfied," said Huntsville manager Tim Hodgson.
