Thunder Get One-Run Win at Toronto
Bobby Cates never let Toronto get something going. The Tampa Bay left-hander commanded his changeup in pitching the Thunder to a 1-0 win. Cates, now 5-4, was the winner. In 7 innings, he gave up 2 hits, while striking out 3, walking 2, and allowing no runs. Tampa Bay is 7th in the Eastern Circuit with a record of 26-30.

Bob Ortega had a direct impact on the outcome. Ortega contributed a run-scoring single in the top of the fifth inning to put Tampa Bay up, 1-0.

"Some games build character," said Tampa Bay manager Ray McKay. "Like this one."
