In 10, Calgary Beats Fairfield, 6-5
Calgary went toe-to-toe with Fairfield before a winner was decided.

Calgary beat Fairfield at Durham Bulls Athletic Park, escaping with a 6-5 win. The win in large part was due to catcher Mel Brace. He went 1-2 with 3 walks. Mike Dooley notched the win in relief. The left-hander allowed no runs on 1 hit in 2 innings. His record now sits at 8-4.

Calgary used the timely hitting of Ken Poulin to seize the win. The third baseman stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the seventh inning to put the Cowboys on top, 5-3. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"Took some scratching and clawing," said Brace. "But we got it done."

The Cowboys lead the RCL AAA Tony La Russa Division by a game.
