Cacti Win by Slim Margin, 4-3
The Albuquerque Cacti did just enough to sneak past the Anchorage Moose, 4-3, at Albuquerque Sports Stadium. Albuquerque pitcher Joey Virgona, in particular, had a standout performance. Albuquerque reliever Andy Mitchell was credited with the win. His record goes to 4-0. Kevin Malina took the loss for Anchorage. Rick Clark closed the door for Albuquerque, picking up his 1st save of the year.

Albuquerque took a 4-3 lead on Mario Alonso's 9th home run of the season. The 2-run home run, which Alonso hit in the bottom of the eighth, left Anchorage pitcher Kevin Malina visibly frustrated.

"We came out on top and that's all I can ask for," said Virgona.

The Moose, now 10-18, continue their slow start.
