Loons Lose to Screaming Eagles in Walk Off
A 3-RBI performance from Jorge Velázquez, who leads the PAA in doubles with 14, helped the Mercer Island Screaming Eagles beat the Minnesota Loons, 7-6. Mercer Island is 22-13 and Minnesota, with the loss, 12-23.

The clutch at-bat in the bottom of the ninth belonged to Velázquez. Facing Domingo Velasco with runners on 2nd and 3rd, the Mercer Island first baseman had a 2-run single. Game over, walk-off style!

"This place was rockin'," Velázquez said.
