Victory Takes Desperados to 25-15
Getting an impressive start from Antonio Rodriguez, Medford beat Aurora by the score of 8-2. At 25-15, the Desperados claim third place in the Sub League 1 East Division.

Medford center fielder Jeff Knisley contributed a timely at-bat in the bottom of the third. With two down, he hit a knuckleball to center field for a run-scoring single. It was his 56th hit of the season and put the Desperados ahead, 2-1.

Knisley attributed the win to "everyone pulling their weight."
