The California Roadrunners came roaring back in the top of the ninth to spoil
the anticipated celebration of the hometown fans.  The final score,, was 9 to
7.
 
Superior was unable to overcome the big offensive rally by California in the
9th inning as they creamed Superior blasting them with 7 runs on 7 hits.  The
crucial at-bat was provided by Rod Barajas who quieted the crowd when he
clubbed a three-run home run.  California had 15 hits for the game and
Superior had 11.  
 
Chan Ho Park(2-0) allowed no runs in 1 inning, and picked up the victory.
Brandon Lyon preserved the game for Park, recording his his 26th.  Sergio
Romo(2-3) was the loser in relief.  He was unable to retire a batter allowing
3 hits and no walks.
 
Romo was feeling apologetic in the locker room, 'I sure let that one get away.
What a miserable feeling to let the guys down; and our fans.  One minute
things are looking great, then. BOOM, it's over with! I just hope I get a
chance to redeem myself real soon!'

2-out RBI- C.Pennington, M.Bourn, M.Izturis
 
Designated hitter Curtis Granderson blasted 2 homeruns and had 4 RBI at SAFECO
Field as the Santa Barbara Outlaws beat the Superior Blues by the count of 8
to 3.
 
The Superior fans didn't appreciate the big day Granderson had.  He stroked a
single in the 3rd inning, clubbed a two-run home run in the 5th inning and
cleared the fences for a two-run home run in the 9th inning.  Mariano Rivera
earned the save with a perfect ninth, his 28th save.  
 
Jake Westbrook(8-7) got the win allowing 3 runs in 7 innings. Tommy
Hanson(11-8) was the losing pitcher.  He pitched 7 innings and surrendered 7
hits and 3 walks.

In a dramatic ending the Brooklyn Bulldogs staged a comeback and held on to
win over the Superior Blues by the count of 4 to 2.
 
Brooklyn scored the winning runs in the top of the 9th inning scoring 4
runners on 3 hits.  The highlight belonged to Brandon Inge who quieted the
home crowd when he laced a base-hit bringing home two baserunners.  Neither
team was able to score until the 8th inning.  
 
The victory went to Casey Coleman(1-5) who went 1 and 2/3 innings, allowing 2
runs. Coleman got relief help from John Axford who gained credit for his 14th
save.  Brad Ziegler(5-3) ended up with the loss in relief.  
 
Ziegler was feeling apologetic in the locker room, 'I sure let that one get
away.  What a miserable feeling to let the guys down; and our fans.  One
minute things are looking great, then. BOOM, it's over with! I just hope I
get a chance to redeem myself real soon!'

Superior takes 2 form Brooklyn, Longoria, Upton Go Yard.
