Johnson City Beaten, 3-2, by Bluefield
The Bluefield Blue Jays did just enough to sneak past the Johnson City Cardinals, 3-2, at Howard Johnson Field. Bluefield pitcher Bob Davis, in particular, had a standout performance. Davis got the win, improving to 6-2. He gave up 6 hits and walked 2 over 7 innings. He allowed 2 runs. With the victory, the Blue Jays upped their record to 24-21.

Cliff Watkins, who is tied for 8th in the APP in stolen bases with 5, had a direct impact on the outcome. Watkins contributed a run-scoring sacrifice fly in the top of the eighth inning to put Bluefield up, 3-2.

"I tell our guys all the time, 'Every pitch is the right pitch if you put it in the right place, you believe in it and have conviction,'" Bluefield manager Jose Mejia said.
