Grand Junction Beaten, 6-3, by Washington (Rk+)
The Grand Junction Rockies could not turn a fine performance from pitcher Bill Larkman into a win. Instead, the Washington (Rk+) Nationals prevailed, 6-3. Larkman threw 7.1 innings of 3-hit ball. Washington (Rk+) pitcher Andrew Snyder earned the win, hiking his record to 1-0. Israel Esquivias suffered the loss. The loss makes Grand Junction 22-29.

Washington (Rk+) took a 5-3 lead on Jim Gonzalez's 2nd triple of the season. The 2-run triple, which Gonzalez hit in the bottom of the eighth, left Grand Junction pitcher Israel Esquivias visibly frustrated.

Gonzalez attributed the win to "energy and focus on the part of everyone."
