Cosmos Defeat Red Birds, 6-5
Stratford beat Toronto at The Lockar Room, eking out a 6-5 win. The win was due in large part to right fielder Manuel Salazar. He was 4-6 with a home run, a double, and 2 singles, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once. Stratford reliever Steve Reed was the winner. His record is now 4-2. The losing pitcher was Gonzalo Anaya. The loss makes Toronto 25-22.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the 12th. With one out, Salazar hit a cutter from Gonzalo Anaya for a run-scoring single. The Cosmos, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"Feels good to be on the winning side," said Salazar.
