Miracle Lose, 6-4, as Blue Jays Rally
Blue Jays center fielder Keith Pierce left his mark on his team's 6-4 win over the Fort Myers Miracle. Pierce, who is tied for 6th in the FSL in triples with 9, went 1-2 with a home run and 2 walks, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once for Dunedin in the contest. Dunedin reliever Ricky Nazarian, who is tied for 10th in the FSL with a 3.21 ERA, was credited with the win. His record goes to 12-6. Ron Hazard took the loss for Fort Myers. The defeat makes Fort Myers 82-55.

Had Alex Cobleigh not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and the bases loaded, Cobleigh hit a 2-run single. That made the score 6-4, in favor of the Blue Jays.

Cobleigh told the Dunedin Herald: "I was born for the big stage."
