DANVILLE BRAVES AT BURLINGTON ROYALS
GAME ID: 14318 - MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 5TH , 2112 - GAME LOG
  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E
Danville Braves (35-30) 0 2 3 1 0 0 2 0 0 8 10 2
Burlington Royals (33-32) 0 0 0 2 0 0 6 1 X 9 10 0
Braves Drop Close One Late
The Danville Braves got a sterling performance from third baseman Ramon Merino, but the Burlington Royals still prevailed, 9-8. Merino went 3-5 with a home run and 2 doubles, while scoring 3 times and driving in 2. With the win, the Royals have a record of 33-32.

Had Jose Colon not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and runners on 1st and 3rd, Colon hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 9-8, in favor of the Royals.

"We did a lot of good things tonight," said Burlington manager Jim Vickery.
