Vancouver won their 4th in a row by rallying from a 6-0 deficit to defeat Hoboken 7-6. The Cutters jumped out to an early 6-0 lead in the third inning, but their bullpen couldn't hold the lead. Troy Glaus dealt the final nail in the coffin with a 2-run double in the 8th inning that gave Vancouver the lead. Billy Wagner finished the 9th for his 14th save. For Hoboken, Mike Napoli went 3-4 with a homer run and 3 RBIs.
Another comeback story last night was Sardine City's extra-inning affair with Blue Ridge. The Bombers jumped out to a 9-4 lead by the end of the 4th inning, but a 3-run 8th inning put the Sardines within one run of the Bombers. In the 9th, Evan Longoria lined a double to tie the game. In the top of the 10th Stephen Drew hit a solo homer to give the Sardines the lead. Carl Crawford led off the 10th with a single for Blue Ridge, but was picked off by pitcher Brandon Morrow. "He fell for the old untied shoelace trick" said Sardine City first baseman Lyle Overbay.
Chien-Ming Wang became the league's first 10-game winner in a 7-1 defeat of Philly yesterday. Wang pitched 7.1 innings and gave up only one unearned run on 5 hits and 3 walks, while striking out 8.
