Loss Mars Fine Effort by Baker
The Melbourne Bitters weathered a fine game by Sunshine Coast center fielder Jon Baker to upend the Crocodile Hunters, 5-3, at Steve Irwin Stadium. Baker went 4 for 4 with 2 home runs and a double, while adding 3 RBI and scoring twice. Alejandro García, the winning pitcher, is now 1-0. He went 7.1 innings, allowing 3 runs on 4 hits, while fanning 5 and walking 0. Miguel Calderón closed it out for Melbourne, earning his 1st save.

Melbourne third baseman Shigochiyo Suzuki produced at a critical juncture. It happened in the top of the eighth with Urmas Huttunen on the mound and Melbourne leading 4-3. Suzuki drew a walk, driving in 1 run.

"We played a good game and came out on top," said Suzuki.

The loss makes Sunshine Coast 9-18.
