Houston Dispatched, 10-7, by Carmel
Tony Melendez did all he could to help his team win. In the end, though, it wasn't enough to keep the Houston Sting from being beaten, 10-7, to the Carmel Apples at BLM Stadium. Melendez was 3 for 5 with a home run and a double. He drove in 5 runs and scored once. With the victory, the Apples record stands at 90-57.

Allen Spoto was 2-4 with 2 singles for Carmel. The 20-year old catcher had a key at-bat in the bottom of the second. With one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 1-1 tie with a run-scoring ground out off Pablo Lantigua. It was his 11th RBI of the season.

"It was offense that won us the game," said winning manager Dale Spain.
