Shorebirds Handed 3-1 Loss by Columbia
Columbia Fireflies starter William Arce pitched his team past the Delmarva Shorebirds, 3-1. The winning pitcher was Arce, now 7-1. He tossed 6.1 innings of 4-hit ball, while walking 2 and fanning 7. Justin Meyer notched his 2nd save of the season.

Who knows how it would've ended, had it not been for Rory Rachuba? The 25-year old catcher Rachuba stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the eighth inning to put Columbia up, 2-0. For the game, he was 2 for 4, including 1 double and 1 single.

"Clutch hitting plus clutch pitching usually equals a win," said Rachuba.

Columbia, at 48-38, holds down 4th place in the Southern Division.
