Rock Cats Best Curve in Pitching Duel
Steve Nelson pitched a gem to lead New Britain to victory over the Altoona Curve, 2-1. Nelson picked up the win for New Britain, going 8 innings. He gave up 1 run on 6 hits. He now sports a record of 5-0. Dave Francisco picked up the save for New Britain, his 14th of the year.

Juan Ortíz drew 1 walk in 4 plate appearances for New Britain. The 23-year old shortstop had a key at-bat in the bottom of the fourth. With one out and runners on 1st and 3rd, he broke a 1-1 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Tony Miles. It was his 31st RBI of the season.

"I made some pitches when I had to," said Nelson.

The win gives New Britain a season record of 72-43.
