Víctor Gutiérrez pitched well, but the St. Louis (GCL) Cardinals still fell short, losing, 4-2, to the Washington (GCL) Nationals at Space Coast Stadium. Billy Bridges picked up the win in relief, improving his record to 1-0. Víctor Gutiérrez was tagged with the loss. The victory puts Washington (GCL) at 16-35.

Erik Williams had a big 2-run triple for the Nationals in the bottom of the second inning. With Washington (GCL) leading 1-0 and runners on 2nd and 3rd, he got a fastball from 17-year old right-handed pitcher Víctor Gutiérrez and swatted a triple to left-center. It was his 1st triple of the season, and more importantly, it put the Nationals ahead, 3-0.

"It was a good night for them and a bad night for us," said St. Louis (GCL) manager Casper Wells.
