Salazar hits 2 home runs, Leads Cosmos to Win
The Stratford Cosmos beat the Nashville Predators, 6-0, at First Tennessee Park. The win was due in part to right fielder Manuel Salazar, who went 2-4 with 2 home runs and a walk, while adding 4 RBI and scoring twice. The win for the Cosmos raised their record to 76-46.

Juan Mercado, the 25-year old shortstop , had a direct impact on the outcome. Mercado contributed a 2-run single in the top of the sixth inning to put Stratford up, 2-0.

"It was a tough night at the plate," said Nashville manager Everett White.
