Raiders Win at North Melbourne, 6-5
The Canberra Raiders withstood an impressive performance by North Melbourne catcher John Mayo to defeat the Kangaroos, 6-5, at North Melbourne Diamond. Mayo was 3 for 4 with a home run and a double. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. Ozzie Rawle was credited with the save for Canberra, his 4th of the season. Canberra, now 7-11, is off to a slow start.

Canberra used a well-timed hit by Herb Pethick to capture the win. The catcher socked a 2-run double in the top of the sixth inning to put the Raiders ahead, 3-2. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it was important.

"You know, at the end of the day, it's about who scores the most runs," said Canberra manager Richard Hager.
