Apples Fall Short at Hazleton, 6-5
The bat of Ricky Ortega helped the Hazleton Birdwings top the Carmel Apples, 6-5. Ortega went 3-4 with a double, 2 singles, and a walk, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once for Hazleton. Steve Davila earned the win in relief. The right-hander allowed 1 run on 3 hits in 2.1 innings. He upped his record to 2-2. The Birdwings improved their record to 63-87 by beating Carmel.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the ninth. With two out, Ortega hit a fastball from Jeff Gamble for a run-scoring single. The Birdwings, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"We were able to put some good swings on some pitches," Ortega told the Hazleton Bulletin.
