Bellflowers Suffer One-Run Loss at Moncton
Jose Yenores had a good game, but he could not keep the Buffalo Bellflowers from falling, 5-4, to the Moncton Mounties at Mapleton Yards. The Buffalo left fielder was 3 for 4 with a home run and a double. He drove in 2 runs and scored once in the loss. The win went to Carlos Balderrama in relief. His record improves to 1-0. Tony Cruz took the loss. Joel Cogswell nailed down the save.

Danny Shafer found himself in a pressure situation in the bottom of the eighth. Facing Buffalo hurler Tony Cruz, the 19-year-old left fielder hit a sacrifice fly. His 31st RBI of the season put the Mounties on top, 5-4.

Moncton manager Johnny Hoffman commended his team for delivering "maximum effort."

The first-place Mounties have won 5 straight games.
