Nerv Turn Back Saguaros, 4-2
Starting pitcher Ton Murray fulfilled his part of the bargain, helping the Marduk Nerv stymie the Tijuana Saguaros, 4-2. In 8 innings, Murray surrendered 8 hits, while striking out 7 and walking 1. He allowed 2 runs. At 57-35, Marduk is in first place in the Baja Cali League Japanese.

Marduk used a well-timed hit by Matt Gunther to capture the win. The catcher socked a 2-run double in the top of the second inning to put the Nerv ahead, 2-0. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it was important.

"Ton pitched like a son-of-a-gun," said Marduk manager Yakamochi Suitani.
