Mermen Take Down Blue Sox, 5-2
The Myrtle Beach Mermen picked up a win at Blue Sox Ballpark, knocking off the Irving Blue Sox, 5-2. Starting pitcher Jeff Merritt, who captured player of the game honors, was a big reason why. Merritt picked up the win for Myrtle Beach, going 8 innings. He gave up 2 runs on 5 hits. He now sports a record of 2-0. With the win, Myrtle Beach improves its record to 4-5.

Had Spartak Gonjarov not delivered a key base hit in the top of the seventh, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and a runner on 1st, Gonjarov hit a run-scoring triple. That made the score 3-2, in favor of the Mermen.

"I'm just looking for a good pitch that I can hit well," said Gonjarov. "And not try to do too much."
