Tropics Paste 7-5 Loss on Martins
Saint Louis second baseman Ricardo Maldonado had a terrific game, but it still wasn't enough to get his team a win. Maldonado was 3-4 with a home run and 2 singles, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once, even as Puerto Rico beat the Martins, 7-5. Eric Martell snagged the win in relief. In 3.2 innings, the right-hander allowed no runs on 2 hits. He's now 6-0 on the season. With the win, the Tropics sit at 72-37.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for José Carlos Saldaña? The Puerto Rico designated hitter had a run-scoring single in the top of the first inning to put the Tropics on top, 1-0. For the game, Saldaña had 1 double and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"I just tried to make good contact," said Saldaña.
