Rock Cats Roll to 10-2 Win Over RubberDucks
New Britain pitcher Brad Dyer did his part in helping his team defeat the Akron RubberDucks, 10-2. The opposition could never get too much going against the right-hander. Dyer, the winner, moves to 3-1. He threw 6.2 innings of 3-hit ball, while fanning 9 and giving up no walks. The win elevated the Rock Cats to 15-14.

In the top of the second, New Britain designated hitter Kevin Jackson had a run-producing at-bat. Facing Akron hurler Francellis Montas, Jackson drew a walk, driving in 1 run. That made the score 2-0, New Britain. For the day, Jackson went 1-5 with a walk.

"I really like what we did out there today," Jackson said after the game.
