Rangers Bedevil Lobster, 13-12
The Buffalo Rangers outlasted Gabriel Rosales and the Maine Lobster, 13-12. Rosales was impressive in the loss. The Maine second baseman belted 2 home runs, while scoring 3 times and driving in 4. Maine has now lost 5 in a row.

The decisive blow was delivered by Willy Amavizca in the bottom of the ninth when he hit a 3-run home run off 27-year old left-handed pitcher Irakly Alvarez to win the game for Buffalo. The home crowd went nuts.

"It was one of those games where both teams were swinging the bat well," Amavizca said.
