The Great Blue Heron converted a terrific effort from starter Joe Tanzman into a win over the Tampa Rattlers at The Bird Bowl at Ward Pound Ridge. The Heron won the game by a final score of 4-2. In 5 innings, Tanzman surrendered 2 hits, while striking out 7 and walking 2. He allowed no runs. Great Blue goes to 77-49. The win puts them 18 games up in their division.

The Heron got a big at-bat from second baseman Jose Pastrano. For the game, Pastrano was 1-2 with a home run and a walk, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. In the bottom of the third, with a runner on 3rd, he stroked a 2-run home run. His 13th home run of the season gave Great Blue a 2-0 lead.

"Joe did a good job mixing and matching," said Great Blue manager Tom LeSaffre.
