Duenas, Matadors Ring Up 10-8 Win
The Hartford Matadors and Chesapeake Tailgators lit up the scoreboard.

Due in large part to first baseman Jeff Duenas, the Hartford Matadors sunk the Chesapeake Tailgators, 10-8. Duenas was 3-4 with a home run and a triple. He scored 2 times and drove in 5. Reliever Ryan Barmore picked up the win. His record improves to 3-1. Ernie Fields took the loss. The save went to Ken Yates, number 9 for him.

Duenas contributed a big hit, a grand slam home run, for Hartford in the bottom of the fifth. With his team trailing 4-3, Duenas took a curveball from Ernie Fields and stroked the home run to right-center. His 3rd home run of the season allowed the Matadors to leap in front, 7-4.

"It wasn't our best performance," said Duenas, "but a win in this league is nothing to sniff at."

The Matadors now have a record of 18-19.
