Bradenton Jukes Past Clearwater, 7-6
The Bradenton Marauders overcame a good performance by Clearwater third baseman Naomichi Kakuta to knock off Clearwater, 7-6, at Calvin Falwell Field. Kakuta went 1 for 3 with a home run. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. The loss drops the Threshers to 12-15.

Bob Dawson was the walk-off hero for Bradenton. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Marauders designated hitter hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

Dawson said, "Whether you hit the ball hard, you walk, you have a long at-bat, 10 or 12 pitches, or you hit a homer, you're just trying to do anything you can do to help the team win."
