Whistlers Handed 5-3 Loss by Tampa Bay
In the 5-3 Tampa Bay win over Boston, the impact of Alex Mendoza was substantial. Mendoza was 3 for 3 with a double and 2 singles. He scored 2 runs. The win puts Tampa Bay at 30-53.

The Whistlers had been locked in a 3-3 tie with the Captains going into the bottom of the sixth inning. That changed quickly when the 27-year old right fielder Sam Bingle came to the plate. Bingle hit a 2-run double on a 1-0 changeup from Boston hurler Jay Helm. It was Bingle's 7th double of the year.

"I'm just looking for a good pitch that I can hit well," said Bingle. "And not try to do too much."
