Ram Brewery Ballpark was the site of an exciting ballgame between the Pennsylvania Butterflies and Bighorn Bison.

Pennsylvania beat Bighorn at Ram Brewery Ballpark, eking out a 6-5 win. The triumph was primarily due to shortstop Dave de la Torre. He was 3 for 5 with a home run and 2 singles. He scored 2 runs. Reliever Randy McCafferty picked up the win. His record improves to 3-2. Nick Merritt, who is tied for 9th in the TML in saves with 23, took the loss. Matt York, summoned from the bullpen, notched his 31st save.

The game was at a stalemate until third baseman Diego Acevez came to bat in the top of the ninth. Facing Bighorn pitcher Nick Merritt, he hit a 0-1 fastball for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Pennsylvania on top, 6-5.

"Wish we'd had more wins to celebrate like this one," said Acevez.

The Butterflies are now 55-96, while the Bison fall to 78-73.
