The Mexico City Aztecs dealt the Columbus Bowsers a 6-3 loss at Ballpark of Columbus. Jeff Ciervo, who is tied for 5th in the S-A in runs scored with 69, was the star on offense. He was 3 for 3 with 3 singles, a walk, and was hit by a pitch. Ken Griffey was credited with the save for Mexico City, his 21st of the season. Mexico City has run its win streak to 4 in a row.

With Mexico City leading 2-1 in the top of the fifth, Ciervo hit a run-scoring single off Columbus hurler Armando Botello. It was the 110th hit of the season for Ciervo and put his team ahead, 3-1.

"Our guys are never satisfied," said Mexico City manager Tony Velez.
