Austin Desperados starter Felipe Moreno was locked-in. He led his team to a win over the Cincinnati Royals, 4-1. Their 26-29 record puts the Desperados third in the American Conference South Division.

The Desperados got an important contribution from designated hitter Matt Fishburn, who in the bottom of the third hit a 1-2 cutter to left for a 2-run double. It was his 6th double of the season and put the Desperados ahead, 3-0.

"Felipe -- his tempo and rhythm were good," said Desperados manager Tim Ward. "He was the key to us winning."
