Mavericks Score Late, Clip Aces, 1-0
In a low-scoring affair between the Houston Mavericks and the Las Vegas Aces, pitcher Luke Whalen was the difference between victory and defeat. The Houston right-hander earned accolades for his stellar performance in the 1-0 Mavericks win. Las Vegas is now 5-4.

The game was at a stalemate until shortstop Gian-Carlo Aquilina came to bat in the bottom of the eighth. Facing Las Vegas pitcher Tim Keller, he hit a 3-1 sinker for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Houston on top, 1-0.

"The key at this level is throwing strike one," said Whalen. "Successful pitchers do it."
