Danville first baseman Shawn Simmons had a 4-RBI performance, which helped his team down the Princeton Rays, 11-0. Dan Jackson locked down his 1st save. Danville, now 5-1, is setting the league on fire so far.

It could have been a different outcome for Danville, had it not been for Edgardo García, the 20-year old catcher . García contributed a 2-run home run in the top of the second inning to put Danville up, 4-0.

Princeton manager Scooter Tucker called the blowout loss "just something that happens."
