Titans Come Back Late, Nip Twins
Both offenses were relatively subdued at Polo Grounds II. Fortunately for the New York Titans, though, Ryan Mellon was able to deliver in the clutch. He went 2 for 4 with a home run and a walk, while scoring 2 times, to lead his team past the Cincinnati Twins, 3-2. New York reliever Rafael Escobar snagged the win, upping his record to 3-7. Francis Ortega shouldered the loss. New York sits in 4th place in the Eastern Conference Kamuzu Division at 71-89.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the ninth. With no one out, Mellon hit a curveball from Francis Ortega for a solo home run. The Titans, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"This place was jumping at the end," Mellon said.
