Brass Earn Late Win
Brass Field was the site of quite a ballgame.

The Baton Rouge Brass besoiled an otherwise fine performance by Syracuse right fielder Justin Armstrong by beating the Starks, 7-6, at Brass Field. Armstrong was 2-4 with a home run, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. Tetsu Gato was the winner in relief. His record is now 1-0. The losing pitcher was Mario Méndez.

In the bottom of the ninth, with two out and the game tied, 6-6, 33-year old designated hitter Carlos Román won it for Baton Rouge. With runners on 1st and 2nd, Román hit a 1-0 fastball from Mario Méndez for a run-scoring single, giving his team the 7-6 win.

"The crowd was juiced," said Román.

With the win, Baton Rouge elevates its record to 2-1.
