The Belfast Zephyrs overcame a pretty good performance by Iceland shortstop Ruggiero Montagnani, beating the Vikings, 9-6, at The Pub up north. Montagnani was 1-2 with 3 walks, while scoring 2. Berkant Vedat, who is tied for 4th in the WB in holds with 21, nailed down the save. Belfast now sports a record of 59-96.

Third Baseman Olivier François made an impact for Belfast, when he swatted a 3-run home run off Riccardo Gradi in the bottom of the first. For the contest, François went 1 for 4 with a home run. He drove in 3 runs and scored once.

"Trying isn't good enough in this league," said François. "You've got to get results."
