Tortugas Nipped, 7-6, by Bradenton
Greg Eckert helped his team muscle past the Daytona Tortugas, 7-6. In the game, the Bradenton shortstop was 4-5 with a double and 3 singles, while scoring 3 runs. The winner in relief was Manny Mejia. The left-hander allowed 2 runs on 3 hits in 3.1 innings. He now owns a record of 9-3. Billy Bly, who is tied for 2nd in the FSL in saves with 21, earned the save for Bradenton.

Bradenton won the game in part because of Luis Leon. The first baseman ripped a 2-run double in the top of the ninth inning to put the Marauders ahead, 7-6. For the game, Leon had 1 double and 1 home run in 4 at-bats.

"At the end of the day, wins and losses are really the only thing that matters," said Eckert.

The Marauders improved to 52-66.
