Matson Lifts Rainbow Mermaids to Win
The Northern Virginia Rainbow Mermaids went home winners at Chase Field, thanks in large part to starter Eric Matson. Matson silenced the Phoenix Hotspur, enabling Northern Virginia to grab the 6-1 win. The 9th-place Hotspur have lost 4 consecutive games.

Matson, a native of West Lafayette, Indiana, was dealing all game. He kept Phoenix hitters off-balance, while giving the Rainbow Mermaids 9 quality innings. Matson threw 99 pitches, allowing 4 hits and striking out 7.

"That's the key at this level, throwing strike one," said Matson. "Successful pitchers do it."
