Phil Hughes(5-7) and Daniel Hudson(0-1) locked horns in a pitcher's duel with
Hughes and the Plum Island Greenheads coming out on top of the South Range
Mariners 2 to 1.
 
Plum Island had 2 runs cross the plate in the 6th inning. The biggest moment
was provided by Jonny Gomes who disappointed the partisan crowd when he
bombed a two-run dinger.  South Range tried unsuccessfully to come back in
the 9th.  
 
Octavio Dotel preserved the game for Hughes, recording his his 9th.  Mike
Swanson was reflective after the loss, 'We should have won this one, we just
made one too many mistakes.  Son-of-a-gun, that added a couple more white
hairs on this noggin of mine.'
