BC Take Down Hotspur Reserves, 4-2
Santiago Alonza pitched a good game, but his team, the Phoenix Hotspur Reserves, still dropped a 4-2 decision to the Houston BC at Thunderbirds Stadium. Katsuyoshi Takuda earned the save for Houston, his 2nd of the year. The Houston BC, now 9-5, have been playing some good baseball.

Steffen Taylor drove in one run for Houston. The 34-year old catcher had a key at-bat in the top of the second. That's when he broke a 0-0 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Santiago Alonza. It was his 5th RBI of the season.

Taylor told the Houston News: "I don't feel you win baseball games by working harder than the other team or 'wanting it more.' You win just by scoring more runs."
