He scored 5 runs. Markham reliever Charlie Leighton picked up the win, upping his record to 1-0. Lisandro Acevedo absorbed the loss. With the win, Markham improves its record to 8-18.

The game was all tied up in the bottom of the eighth, until Costello delivered big-time for Markham, stroking a dramatic run-scoring single off Lisandro Acevedo. The game-changing hit put the Wheelwrights on top, 9-8.

Costello told a local reporter: "My job is to go out and play as hard as I can."
