Threshers Drop 8-3 Decision to Marauders
Bradenton designated hitter Eric Dennis contributed significantly to his team's 8-3 win over the Clearwater Threshers. Dennis went 3 for 4 with 1 run scored to lead the offensive attack for the Marauders. Bradenton starter Héctor Murillo was credited with the win after throwing 109 pitches over 7 innings. His record now stands at 5-4. The 4th-place Threshers have lost 5 straight games.

Frank Mayer had a big grand slam home run for the Marauders in the bottom of the second inning. With Bradenton trailing 1-0 and the bases loaded, he got a screwball from Sigfrid Naegeli and swatted a home run to right-center. It was his 1st home run of the season, and more importantly, it put the Marauders ahead, 4-1.

Mayer said his team "executed a good game plan."
