Albuja Delivers Walk-Off Win for Aquas
The Houston Aquas besoiled an otherwise fine performance by Maine right fielder Josh Fish by beating the Lobster, 7-6, at Tesoro Stadium. Fish slugged 2 home runs. He drove in 5 runs and scored twice. Houston reliever Ron Gelsomino got the win, raising his record to 4-8. Masato Nishihara was tagged with the loss. The Aquas improved to 99-62.

Edgar Albuja was the walk-off hero for Houston. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Aquas right fielder hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"This wasn't a good win," said Albuja. "It was a great win."
