Despite a fine performance by first baseman Jim Green, the Denver Pilots lost to the Westwood Bruins, 5-3. Green went 3 for 4 with a home run and a double, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. Rodrigo Izquierdo got the win, improving to 9-7. He pitched 6.2 innings, giving up 5 hits and 2 runs, while striking out 7 and walking 1. Danny Martinez closed the game out for Westwood, earning his 26th save.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Matt Rock? The Westwood third baseman had a 2-run single in the top of the fourth inning to put the Bruins on top, 3-0. For the game, Rock had 1 double and 2 singles in 5 at-bats.

"It doesn't matter if you're 10 games over .500 or 10 games under, it feels good to win," Rock told the Westwood News.

Westwood has a record of 67-59, placing them third in the Stripes Conference East Division.
