No one was more impactful than German Castro in the 6-5 Washington (Rk+) win over Las Vegas (Rk+). Castro went 2-3 with a home run. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. Washington (Rk+) reliever Carlos Rodriguez picked up the win, upping his record to 1-0. Simone Herran was saddled with the loss. The Hustle fall to 4-9 and continue to sputter in the early going.

In the bottom of the fourth inning of a 4-4 tie, Washington (Rk+) second baseman Josh Cipolla reached on an error by the SS, driving in 1 run. It broke the deadlock and put Washington (Rk+) on top, 5-4.

"In this profession, you've got to put the good and the bad behind you quickly," Las Vegas (Rk+) skipper Ryan Parkins said.
