Titans 5-2 Winners Over Tampa Bay
In baseball, each game is unique. This one was no different.

Toronto pitcher Ben Craig did his part in helping his team beat the Tampa Bay Thunder, 5-2. The left-hander kept opposing batters from doing too much damage. In 8 innings, Craig surrendered 5 hits, while striking out 7 and walking 1. He allowed 2 runs.

Toronto right fielder Torjus Rasmussen helped the Titans go up, 3-2, in the bottom of the sixth inning. With the game tied, Rasmussen hit a run-scoring single off Tampa Bay pitcher Steve Rossi.

"Ben is a tough competitor," said Toronto manager Chris Barrett.

The Titans, at 23-33, sit in 8th place in the PBC East Division.
