Royals Score Late to Upend Desperados, 5-4
The Cincinnati Royals faced a tough opponent in Austin pitcher Byron Stanton, but did just enough to pull out the victory at Dell Diamond by a final score of 5-4. Stanton went 6.1 innings and allowed 2 runs. Cincinnati pitcher Jason Martin got the win. He's now 4-1. Bob Baucke was tagged with the loss. Roberto Salazar earned save number 34 this season.

Who knows how it would've ended, had it not been for Rick Brown? The 22-year old left fielder Brown stroked a 2-run double in the top of the ninth inning to put Cincinnati up, 5-4. For the game, he was 2 for 5, including 1 double and 1 single.

"You get some opportunities, you better take advantage of them," said Austin manager Adam Ponder.

The win gives Cincinnati a season record of 73-64.
