Cats Walk Off with Win
Fort Worth third baseman Danny Benitez made his presence felt in the 6-2 Cats triumph over the Fairfield Flash. Benitez went 3 for 6 with a home run and a double. He drove in 4 runs and scored once. Fort Worth reliever Marlin Bryan picked up the win, upping his record to 4-3. Bill Schindler took the loss. Fairfield, at 66-80, has lost 4 straight.

Benitez had a game-changing home run in the bottom of the 11th. On a full count fastball from Bill Schindler, he banged a grand slam home run to right, giving the Cats a 6-2 lead. It was the 3rd home run of the year for Benitez.

In comments to the Fort Worth Bulletin, Benitez admitted he's been told to improve his work habits. "But," he said, "I know when to take it to another gear."
