Clutch Hitting Delivers Win for Tarpons
The Tampa Tarpons relied on the hitting of center fielder Orlando Castillo to stop the Dunedin Blue Jays, 5-3. For the game, Castillo was 2 for 4 with a home run and a double. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2. Tampa reliever Garrett Acton got the win, raising his record to 2-1. Jaime Morales was tagged with the loss. The Tarpons now have a mark of 35-40.

Tampa used the clutch hitting of Luis Kirk to capture the win. The pinch hitter drilled a 2-run home run in the top of the ninth inning to put the Tarpons ahead, 5-3. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a big one.

"It takes a lot of things to win a ballgame," said Tampa manager Pat Borders. "It's usually not just one thing."
