Captains Get Past Carolina for 5-4 Win
The Tampa Bay Captains overcame a good performance by Carolina second baseman Bill Havey to knock off Carolina, 5-4, at Ahoy Park. Havey was 3-4 with a triple, 2 singles, and a walk. He scored 2 times. Tampa Bay reliever Greg Brittingham picked up the win. Sean Rowe took the loss for Carolina. The Captains raised their record to 19-41.

Tampa Bay took a 5-4 lead on Nick Rucker's 8th double of the season. The run-scoring double, which Rucker hit in the bottom of the eighth, left Carolina pitcher Roy Walk visibly frustrated.

"We were the better team today. Maybe that won't be the case next game, but we'll enjoy it for now," Rucker told the Tampa Bay Herald.
