Rockies Pull Out Late Win, 7-6
Kenny Kennedy was locked in. The left-hander led the Colorado (GCL) Rockies to a 7-6 win against the Tampa Bay (GCL) Rays at Mosquitos Ballpark. With the victory, the Rockies upped their record to 28-27.

The clutch at-bat came in the bottom of the ninth inning, when Colorado (GCL) pinch hitter Mario Valdez, facing Jim Unknown, had a run-scoring walk. It gave the Rockies the 7-6 win.

"Kenny throwing strikes, pounding the zone, that is exactly what you want to see," said Colorado (GCL) manager Alex Velasquez.
