Demons Tack 6-4 Loss on St. Kilda
Melbourne and St. Kilda duked it out and the Demons came out victorious.

The Melbourne Demons topped the St. Kilda Saints by a score of 6-4. Leading the way was center fielder Everton Leaper. Leaper went 2 for 3 with 2 singles and 2 walks, while scoring 2 times for the Demons. The 9th-place Demons now have a win-loss record of 19-25.

Had Leon Mortimer not delivered a key base hit in the top of the seventh, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and the bases loaded, Mortimer hit a 2-run single. That made the score 5-4, in favor of the Demons.

"We'll just keep our nose to the grindstone," Mortimer told the Melbourne Observer.
