Melbourne Gets 4-2 Win
The Melbourne Demons picked up a win at Kardinia Park, taking down the Geelong Cats, 4-2. Starting pitcher Decker Cartmell was a big reason why. In 6 innings, Cartmell surrendered 5 hits, while striking out 5 and walking 3. He allowed 2 runs. Norm Riethmuller sewed up the save, his 26th.

Everton Leaper, the former first round draft pick , had a direct impact on the outcome. Leaper contributed a run-scoring sacrifice fly in the top of the seventh inning to put Melbourne up, 4-2.

"We had a good game plan," Cartmell said, "and we were able to execute it."

The Demons now own a record of 49-69.
