Tarpons Come Back Late to Clip Blue Jays
The Tampa Tarpons, despite a fine performance by Dunedin pitcher Jeremias Ruffalo, grabbed a 3-2 win at TicketReturn.com Field at Pelicans Ballpark. Ruffalo allowed no runs over 7 innings. Tampa reliever Jesse Doyle picked up the win, upping his record to 2-4. Elián Barajos took the loss. Tampa is 6th in the East Coast League Florida Division with a record of 22-26.

Nathan Hixon was the walk-off hero for Tampa. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Tarpons designated hitter hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"This game had its share of tense moments," Hixon said, postgame.
