Patriots Edge Rainbow Mermaids, 4-3
The Northern Virginia Rainbow Mermaids and Boston Patriots provided some drama at Dunkin Donuts Park.

Boston Patriots starter Jesús Franco was in a groove as he led his team to a win over the Northern Virginia Rainbow Mermaids, 4-3. Rick Converse got credit for the win, improving to 1-0. He allowed no runs on no hits in 1 innings.

The clutch at-bat came in the bottom of the tenth inning, when Boston catcher Omer Yurtseven, facing Ilie Paunescu, had a run-scoring double. It gave the Patriots the 4-3 win.

"We put a lot of pressure on ourselves," Yurtseven told a Boston News reporter. "Sometimes we need just to relax."

Boston is still hoping to get on a roll. The win is just their 5th in 14 games.
