Vail Slaps 5-0 Loss on Cincinnati
The Vail Tigercats beat the Cincinnati Bombardiers, 5-0. Vail pitcher and Sugar Land, Texas, native Dan Herbert led the way. The winner was Herbert. He threw 5.0 innings of shutout ball. The loser was Steve Dunn. Vail goes to 23-14, Cincinnati to 10-27.

Nick Keller had a big 2-run home run for the Tigercats in the bottom of the fourth inning. With Vail leading 1-0 and a runner on 1st, he sized up a screwball from Steve Dunn, who is tied for 3rd in the W-AA in innings pitched with 50.1, and punished it. The result was his 7th home run of the season, which put the Tigercats on top, 3-0.

Vail manager Mike Alexander commended his team for exhibiting "no shortage of effort."
