Keys Get 6-3 Win Versus Kalamazoo
Long Beach picked up a win at Long Beach Grounds, bumping off the Kalamazoo Comets, 6-3. Pitcher Mike Riddick was a major reason the Keys emerged victorious. Riddick yielded 3 runs over 8.1 innings to notch the win. He scattered 8 hits, walked 2, and struck out 4. His record improves to 5-9. Josh DeYoe earned the save for Long Beach, his 10th of the year.

The Keys got a big hit from designated hitter Jamie Young. Facing Kalamazoo pitcher Mike Gunter in the bottom of the fifth, Young pounded a run-scoring triple to right. His 5th triple of the season put the Keys ahead, 2-0.

"I was able to fill up the zone," said Riddick.

The victory puts Long Beach at 52-88.
