Late Offense Lifts Bluefield to 9-1 Victory
The Princeton Rays got a superb performance from pitcher Devin Bottemiller, but the Bluefield Blue Jays still won the game, 9-1. Bottemiller threw 6.1 innings of shutout ball. The win makes Bluefield 20-26.

Willie Ruiz, who is tied for 6th in the APP with a .429 on-base percentage, helped out the Bluefield cause in the top of the ninth inning with a run-scoring double. For the game, the first baseman was 3-5 with 3 doubles. He drove in 2 runs and scored once.

Said losing manager Rusty Brady: "It's very easy to sit in an ivory tower and critique the pitching, but the bottom line is we need to score runs."
