The Honolulu Rays trumped the Kinuso Blues, 9-2, at Blues Ballpark. Honolulu first baseman Tin Truong was terrific. He hit 3 home runs. He drove in 6 runs and scored three times. Andre Simpson was the winning pitcher. Over 6 innings, he allowed 2 runs on 5 hits, with 1 walk and 7 strikeouts. Honolulu is now 35-23, while Kinuso is 28-30.

Jay Johnstone provided a timely hit. The Honolulu center fielder delivered a run-scoring triple in the top of the sixth inning to put the Rays on top, 1-0. It was his only hit in the game, but he made it count.

"I thought we played a nice game," Johnstone told the Honolulu Daily News. "Good pitching, timely hitting, it was all there."
