Alpines Win Nail-Biter
The Saint John Alpines faced a tough opponent in Royal Oak pitcher Hector Alvarez, but still scratched out a win at Royal Oak Field by a final score of 1-0 in 11 innings. Alvarez went 9 innings and allowed no runs. Saint John reliever Manny Vega picked up the win to move to 1-4. Fernando Abrego suffered the loss. The 83-51 Alpines lead the RCL LA West Division by one game.

The game was at a stalemate until designated hitter Danny Ruiz came to bat in the top of the 11th. Facing Royal Oak pitcher Fernando Abrego, he hit a 1-2 curveball for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Saint John on top, 1-0.

"We earned that one," said Ruiz.
