Juggernauts Score Late, Topple Lobster, 5-2
At Molson Park, the Portland (E) Lobster and Toronto Juggernauts were greeted by an enthusiastic crowd.

Riding the 3-hit performance of the 23-year old first baseman Cheng-qian Eng, the Toronto Juggernauts stopped the Portland (E) Lobster, 5-2, in 9 innings. Toronto reliever Ron van den Berk picked up the win, while Kanei Muraoka took the loss for Portland (E).

The game was at a stalemate until designated hitter Matt Salmon came to bat in the bottom of the eighth. Facing Portland (E) pitcher Kanei Muraoka, he hit a 1-1 slider for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Toronto on top, 3-2.

"I think every team will tell you that the pitching sets the tone, especially the starters," said Toronto skipper Marc Arnold.

Toronto is now 62-85, while Portland (E) is 57-91.
