Starting pitcher Ricardo Mercado took care of business, helping the Quebec City Blues stifle the Southern California Empires, 6-2. In 9 innings, Mercado surrendered 8 hits, while striking out 9 and walking 0. He allowed 2 runs. Quebec City has 3 straight wins, Southern California 3 straight losses.

The Blues got an important contribution from first baseman Brian Nick, who in the bottom of the third punched a 2-2 fastball into right for a 2-run home run. It was his 3rd home run of the season and put the Blues ahead, 4-0.

"I felt good up there," said Nick. "I saw the ball well."
