Tropics Drop Honey Butter Chicken Biscuits, 10-9
The Corpus Christi Honey Butter Chicken Biscuits and Puerto Rico Tropics provided some drama for the home crowd.

The Puerto Rico Tropics defeated the Corpus Christi Honey Butter Chicken Biscuits, 10-9. Doing his part was designated hitter José Carlos Saldaña, who went 2 for 5 with a home run and a walk, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once. Puerto Rico reliever Ken Aafjes got the win, raising his record to 1-0. Donald Jackson was tagged with the loss.

Puerto Rico used the timely hitting of Paul DeJong to seize the win. The second baseman stroked a 2-run single in the top of the 15th inning to put the Tropics on top, 10-8. It was his only hit in 8 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"One win at a time, one game at a time. We try not to get too far ahead of ourselves," Saldaña told the Puerto Rico Herald.

Puerto Rico, at 32-31, sits in 5th place in the Anderson League Smith Division.
