Vandals Get One-Run Win at South Beach
The South Beach Blaze and Eugene Vandals provided some drama for the home crowd.

The Eugene Vandals managed to get by the South Beach Blaze, 5-4, at The Ballpark on the Beach. Eugene pitcher Byron Combs set himself apart with his performance. The Vandals, at 39-32, sit in 5th place in the Premier A.

Eugene used the clutch hitting of Scott Simpson to snag the win. The third baseman drilled a 2-run home run in the top of the seventh inning to put the Vandals ahead, 5-4. It was his lone hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a crucial one.

"We had the game right there for the taking," said South Beach manager Gerald Merendino. "But we decided not to take it."
