Bradenton Nets 4-3 Win Versus Miracle
Crowds lined up early in front of Hammond Stadium, eagerly awaiting the start of the 2112 Florida State League season. On the mound was Joe Winfield for the visiting Bradenton Marauders and John Hill for the hometown Fort Myers Miracle. In a spirited contest, the Marauders pulled out the win, defeating the Miracle by the score of 4-3. Especially impressive was John Hill. Billy Bly earned the save for Bradenton, his 1st of the year.

The Marauders beat the Miracle in part due to timely hitting. Case in point: the two-out single Josh Kiesling produced in the top of the ninth. Batting against Ian Pandelo, Kiesling gave his team the lead, 4-3, when he hit a 2-run single.

Kiesling attributed the win to his team's "grittiness."
