Lake Monsters Edge Past Santa Barbara, 4-3
Vermont starter Rafael Rodríguez pitched effectively against the Santa Barbara Golden Cranes at Monster Field. The right-hander led his team to a 4-3 win. Vermont reliever Brian Wheeler picked up the win, upping his record to 1-2. Xavier Andrade was saddled with the loss. The Vermont Lake Monsters have an impressive 57-35 record.

Late in the game, second baseman Arturo Robles had a big at-bat for Vermont. In the bottom of the 13th, he hit a run-scoring single off Xavier Andrade. The play gave the Lake Monsters a 4-3 lead.

Rodríguez said this kind of win gives the team "a buzz."
