Aztecs Win at Columbus, 4-2
Mexico City pitcher Jesse Aggas did his part in helping his team defeat the Columbus Bowsers, 4-2. The opposition could never get too much going against the right-hander. Joey Dykema earned his 2nd save in 2 chances. The Aztecs have an impressive 82-47 record.

Mexico City used a well-timed hit by Jonathan Lewis to capture the win. The right fielder socked a run-scoring double in the top of the third inning to put the Aztecs ahead, 1-0. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it was important.

"You have to trust that what you're doing is going to produce results," said Aggas.
