Buck$ Top Tropics, 5-4
The Border City Buck$ beat the Puerto Rico Tropics, 5-4, in part because of shortstop Rubén Rivera. He was 2-4 with a home run, a double, and a walk, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. With the win, the Buck$ sit at 26-24.

The clutch at-bat came in the bottom of the tenth inning, when Border City designated hitter Juan Soto, facing Manabu Oike, had a run-scoring ground out. It gave the Buck$ the 5-4 win.

"We fed off the energy of the crowd at the end," Soto said.
