Toros Score Late, Upend Athletics, 3-1
Gerald Tanton pitched well enough to win, but it was not to be. The Kansas City Athletics, despite Tanton's fine outing, dropped a 3-1 decision to the Tucson Toros at Ballpark of Missouri. Manny Carbonell picked up the win in relief. His record improves to 1-0. Gerald Tanton suffered the loss. The victory makes Tucson 4-2.

Tucson used the timely hitting of Heater Watkins to seize the win. The third baseman stroked a 2-run single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Toros on top, 3-1. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"We faced good pitching and still got it done," said Watkins.
