The Niagara Falls shortstop was 3 for 5 with 3 singles, while scoring 2 runs in the loss. The Caterpillars are now 38-46, while the Expos fall to 40-44.

In the bottom of the 1st, the Caterpillars grabbed the lead when Jorge Noutel rapped a two-out single. Grand Forks was trailing 1-0, when Noutel hit a 2-run single off Ammuc Mwenda to put his team in front, 2-1.

"We made a couple of mistakes," said Niagara Falls skipper Orlando Batista, "and it cost us."
