Royals Clipped, 4-1
Austin Desperados starter Sam Campos turned in a top-notch performance against the Cincinnati Royals at The Castle. The result was a win for the Desperados, 4-1. Joe Townsend snagged the win in relief. The right-hander allowed no runs on 2 hits over 1.1 innings. He's now 8-8 on the season. Picking up the save was Bob Baucke. He's now 35 for 40 in save chances.

Had Paul Ainsworth not delivered a key base hit in the top of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and a runner on 2nd, Ainsworth hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 2-1, in favor of the Desperados.

Austin manager Adam Ponder said his team played a "no nonsense" game.

With the win, Austin raised its record to 76-60.
