Sting Win at St. Petersburg, 4-3 | The Houston Sting got a rain-soaked win over the St. Petersburg Pelicans at Billy Mathews Field.
Matt Roth had a good game, but he could not keep the St. Petersburg Pelicans from falling, 4-3, to the Houston Sting at Billy Mathews Field. The St. Petersburg designated hitter was 1-4 with a home run and a walk. He drove in 2 runs and scored once in the loss. Jesus Martinez notched his 10th save in 18 chances.
A crucial at-bat came with runners on 1st and 2nd and one out in the top of the seventh inning. That's when left fielder Will Valtin, who is tied for 2nd in the DML in triples with 6, drew a walk. The Sting went on to win.
"We take it day by day here," said Valtin, "and today was a good one for us."
The Sting' win now puts them at 73-75.
