Aztecs Score Late to Beat Tropics, 5-4
The Mexico City Aztecs cut down the White Deer Tropics by the score of 5-4 in 15 innings. Much of the credit went to catcher Brent Mallinson. Mallinson was 4 for 7 with a triple and 3 singles, while scoring 3 for the Aztecs. John Sims, now 3-1, was credited with the win in 1.2 innings of relief. He allowed no runs on 1 hit, while striking out 2 and walking 0. This win makes it 5 in a row for Mexico City.

The game was at a stalemate until designated hitter Steve Farnsworth came to bat in the top of the 15th. Facing White Deer pitcher Taylor Marshall, he hit a 0-1 fastball for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Mexico City on top, 5-4.

"Feels good to be on the winning side," said Mallinson.
