Multi-HR Day for Merez as Jedi Knights Overpower Mustangs, 7-6
The New Orleans Jedi Knights did just enough to secure a 7-6 victory over the San Angelo Mustangs at Heartland Kettlecorn Stadium. Nobody did more than catcher Abraham Merez, who captured player of the game honors. Bobby Wallace earned his 10th save in 11 chances. The first-place Jedi Knights have a one-game lead in their division.

Merez had a game-changing home run in the top of the ninth. On a full count fastball from Sam Thomas, he banged a 3-run home run to left, giving the Jedi Knights a 7-6 lead. It was the 8th home run of the year for Merez.

"Being able to play a game for a living is one thing. Being able to play it well and contribute to a win is even better," Merez told the New Orleans Daily News.
