Royals Bridle Heathens, 4-2
Cincinnati turned a fine outing from starter Bill Rauch into a victory over the Halifax Heathens at Estadio Azteca. The final score was 4-2. Rauch, now 8-2, was the winner. In 7.2 innings, he gave up 5 hits, while striking out 1, walking 2, and allowing 2 runs. Gordie Clifford sewed up the save, his 20th.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Philip Gardner? The Cincinnati designated hitter had a 2-run double in the top of the third inning to put the Royals on top, 2-0. For the game, Gardner had 1 double and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

Halifax manager David Morris said he was "mildly disappointed" with the loss. "We had our opportunities, but we didn't take advantage of them," he said.

The first-place Royals have a one-game lead in their division.
