Rainbow Mermaids Clip Rocketeers, 7-6, in R3 Contest
The Northern Virginia Rainbow Mermaids got a strong game from starter Nelson Bennett, but it was some clutch hitting that ultimately delivered the win.

The Rainbow Mermaids took the 7-6 win over the Seattle Rocketeers in Game 2 of the Tournament of Champions in a 9th inning walk-off. The win capped off a fine outing for the right-handed Bennett. Bennett threw 7.0 innings allowing 4 runs in the win, which brought the Rainbow Mermaids into a 1-1 tie in the best-of-7 series.

Batting in the bottom of the ninth, 28-year old first baseman José Mondragon had a real shot to win the game. Seattle pitcher José Correa was determined not to let it happen. But with two outs, Mondragon hit a run-scoring single. The Rainbow Mermaids had a walk-off triumph.

"Nelson was in tempo tonight," said Northern Virginia skipper David Lister.

Game 3 is scheduled for Sunday at Boeing Dome in Seattle.
