Desperados Snatch Late-Game, 2-1 Win
The Medford Desperados put one in the win column with an opening day 2-1 triumph over the Little Rock Golden Gophers. The crowd at Ballpark of Medford watched Chris Reed put on a fine performance.

Up to bat in the bottom of the ninth, 22-year old catcher Phil McBreen had a chance to be the hero. Little Rock pitcher Ronnie Downard wanted to foil that plan. But with one out, McBreen hit a sacrifice fly. The Desperados had themselves a thrilling win.

"This stadium was a-rockin'," said McBreen.
