Grates goes 3-for-3 as Rockets Squeeze Past Buzzard's Bay
Caleb Grates was a major factor in the 8-7 Kelowna win over Buzzard's Bay. The Rockets left fielder was 3-3 with 2 doubles and a walk, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 2. Kelowna reliever Ryan Wride was credited with the win. His record goes to 5-4. Matt Williams took the loss for Buzzard's Bay. Eric Lewis earned the save, his 10th in 11 tries.

A defensive lapse proved costly in the contest. In the bottom of the eighth, with the game tied, Randy Parrell was at the plate when Kelowna scored 1 on an error. The miscue enabled the Rockets to go in front, 8-7.

"I just try to be a dog, have good swings, good at-bats," said Parrell.

The victory gives the Rockets a record of 66-64.
