Heat Suffer One-Run Loss at New Rochelle
New Rochelle right-hander Blake Banks pitched his team to victory over the Palm Springs Heat at Ballpark of Lexington. The final score was 3-2. New Rochelle is now 58-59, while Palm Springs is 46-71.

Malcolm Babcock had a big 2-run home run for the Purple Wave in the bottom of the third inning. With New Rochelle leading 1-0 and a runner on 1st, he got a curveball from 27-year old right-handed pitcher John Cochran and swatted a home run to right. It was his 11th home run of the season, and more importantly, it put the Purple Wave ahead, 3-0.

"We were in it," said Palm Springs manager Rogelio Sanchez. "We just didn't score enough runs."
