The Hamilton Bulldogs rode a solid performance from 25-year-old starting pitcher Jon Escobar to a win, beating the Hialeah Firecats, 9-1, at Mariachis Ballpark. The winner was Escobar. He threw 7.1 innings of shutout ball. The loser was Casey Higgins. The Firecats have now dropped 5 straight.

The Bulldogs got an important contribution from right fielder Brett Cortright, who in the bottom of the third hit a 1-2 curveball to right-center for a 2-run home run. It was his 11th home run of the season and put the Bulldogs ahead, 4-0.

"Jon is tough to beat when he's hitting his spots," said Hamilton manager Emmanuel Montano.
