Mermen Stay Hot with Extra-Inning Win
Despite the exploits of right fielder David Moore, the Riverside Rotters were beaten by the Corpus Christi Mermen, 7-6, in 17 innings. Moore went 3 for 5 with a home run, 2 singles, 2 walks, and was hit by a pitch. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. The Mermen, at 70-58, have now won 6 straight.

The decisive blow was delivered by Mike Belsito in the bottom of the 17th when he hit a run-scoring double off 31-year old left-handed pitcher Ryan Butler to win the game for Corpus Christi. The home crowd went nuts.

"Our team showed some resilience," said Belsito.
