Blues Use Late-Game Magic to Beat Dogs, 5-3
The Blues grabbed a win, 5-3, at New Northwest Stadium, overcoming a fine effort from Chicago pitcher Daniel Ortíz. Ortíz went 5.2 innings and allowed 1 run. The save went to Sheridon Raffles, number 1 for him. Chicago drops to 3-8.

Memphis used a clutch hit from Dan Gaccione to get the win. The right fielder drilled a solo home run in the top of the ninth inning to put the Blues ahead, 4-3. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a doozy.

"The fans pay the tickets and help us do what we do, so we like to put on a show for them," Gaccione told the Memphis Gazette.
