Tigers Sunk by Hawks
The 6-1 FSB win over HA was due in large part to Mel Rojas Jr.. The Hawks left fielder was 1-3 with a home run and 2 walks, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once. Yuta Nakamura got the save, the 1st for him this season. The win puts FSB at 36-30 this season.

FSB took a 6-1 lead on Rojas Jr.'s 6th home run of the season. The grand slam home run, which he hit off Shingo Hirata in the bottom of the eighth, propelled FSB to the win.

Rojas Jr. attributed the win to his team's "tenacity."
