5 Straight Wins for Baysox
The Reading Fightin Phils wasted an inspired, 7-inning effort from starter Bobby Thompson, falling, 2-0, to the Bowie Baysox at FirstEnergy Stadium. The win belonged to Dave Escobar in relief. His record improves to 5-3. Miguel Mota took the loss for Reading. Bowie is in first place in the Southern Division with a record of 75-32.

Alex Melendez came through with a big-time hit for Bowie. The first baseman smacked a 2-run home run in the top of the ninth inning to give his team the lead, 2-0. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"We're rolling right now," said Melendez. "We're playing good baseball."
