St. Catharines Wins, 5-4, Over Ambassadors
The St. Catharines Blue Jays did just enough to nip the Fremont Ambassadors, 5-4, in 10 innings. St. Catharines third baseman Nick Makar, in particular, had a standout performance. St. Catharines reliever Juan Cotto got the win, raising his record to 2-1. Brian Joiner was tagged with the loss. Andy Mahoney was credited with the save for St. Catharines, his 10th of the season.

Had Makar not come through in the top of the tenth, who knows how the game would've ended? But with two down, Makar hit a run-scoring single. The Blue Jays took the lead, 5-4, and never looked back.

"The bar for us is not a particular opponent, it's ourselves," said St. Catharines manager Freddy Coss.

The second-place Blue Jays now have a record of 68-62.
