Late Rally by Rainbow Mermaids Secures Win
Northern Virginia Rainbow Mermaids starter Javier Desdin turned in a top-notch performance against the Atlanta Smoke at Atlantica. The result was a win for the Rainbow Mermaids, 4-2. In 8 innings, Desdin surrendered 5 hits, while striking out 4 and walking 1. He allowed 2 runs. David Hudson converted his 15th save in 15 tries.

Had Ty Tomblin not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and runners on 2nd and 3rd, Tomblin hit a 2-run double. That made the score 4-2, in favor of the Rainbow Mermaids.

"Baseball is about momentum," said Desdin, "and we feel we've got it in our favor after that win."

The Rainbow Mermaids improved to 34-21.
