Banford Goes Wild, But Cavalry Win
The 2025 season is getting uglier for Hialeah.

The inspired effort of Hialeah third baseman Derrick Banford was not enough to prevent a loss, 6-4, to the St. Louis Cavalry. Banford hit 2 home runs. St. Louis reliever Zhi-gang Loong picked up the win, upping his record to 2-0. Juan Rincon took the loss. Shane Campbell nailed down his 14th save.

St. Louis used a clutch hit from Mike Fath to snatch the win. The center fielder belted a 2-run home run in the top of the ninth inning to put the Cavalry ahead, 6-4. It was his only hit, but it was huge.

"Enjoyed this one," Fath told the St. Louis Citizen. "But it's back to work tomorrow."

Now 14-43, Hialeah has dropped 24 straight.
